Senior Portfolio

What is a Senior Portfolio?

A Senior Portfolio is an organized collection of high school work selected by the student with the advice of his/her mentor. It highlights a student’s knowledge, skills, interests, and experiences. It provides examples of three student works that show his/her level of accomplishment, effort or progress in a specific area. It encourages self-evaluation, reflection and goal setting. And it creates an important link between school and work or school and post-secondary education.
All twelveth grade students present their portfolio at the Senior Exhibition which takes place in April. Parents of students in every grade level at MBHS are invited to participate in this event by sitting on one of the exhibition panels. Click on this link now to volunteer for this fun event.
