BASIS Senior Projects

The BASIS Charter School Senior Project supports students’ developing sense of investigation while fostering independence and professionalism. Over the course of the third trimester, students gain real-world experience at an off-campus site. Working with mentors at their school and off-campus site, students investigate a topic of their choosing and share blog entries summarizing their successes and challenges. At the end of the trimester, students return to campus and present an analysis of their findings to peers, staff, and parents. These projects may be completed anywhere in the world.
