There are a lot of different things high school seniors choose to do for their senior project. Some design a model, some do a presentation.
Others do things not many people in the world would ever consider doing.
At The Academy at Charlemont, seniors are tasked with coming up with an independent senior project on something that will stretch themselves in many ways. The hope is to learn something new about themselves, while also giving back to the community.
