Portfolio Information.

Portfolios tend to be the most challenging part of our curriculum, therefore it is very important for our students to remain vigilant about completing lessons on time, seeking information from our website, attend LiveLessons focused on the projects,  and then reach out to the teacher for extra help with the Portfolio!

Portfolios....

  • Students will engage in a portfolio project in Units 7, 11, and 15 in Semester A and 6, 10, and 14 in Semester B.
  • Portfolios are submitted electronically at the end of each of the lessons mentioned above through the drop box. Nothing is mailed to me.
  • Portfolios are graded within one week of submission.

CheckMyWork.....

All portfolios must be submitted to CheckMyWork, and the CMW link must be submitted with the portfolio. Follow the directions provided to obtain the link, then copy the link and paste at the end of all portfolios.
