Senior Exit Portfolios Overview
The portfolio project's purpose is to provide students an opportunity to:
- Reflect on school experiences.
- Prepare for job or college interviews.
- Showcase talents, learning, and abilities.
The Portfolio and English Class:
- The senior exit portfolio is a county-wide requirement of Senior English classes.
- Successful completion of the portfolio and the exit interview are significant test grades in the English IV or AP English course.
- Polishing, editing, revising, and updating is to be completed this year in English courses.
- All portfolios will be due November 14.
A complete portfolio will include:
- Cover page.
- Table of contents.
- Resume.
- Cover letter.
- Reflective essay.
- Three artifacts, each with a rationale (one each for academic achievement, professional responsibility, and career readiness).
- Two letters of recommendation.
The Exit Interview
- Exit interviews will be conducted in school the second week of December.
- Students are expected to dress professionally for this experience.
- Students are required to bring a fully completed portfolio to the interview on their laptop.
- Students who are not dressed professionally or are without a portfolio will not be able to interview and will receive a zero for that part of the project.
What parents can do to help
- Help your student to look over the portfolio and ensure that it appears professional – including grammar, spelling, and overall organization and appearance.
- Practice “interviews” with the student before the December interview.
