Hi All,

Simsbury High School has run a Capstone program for a few years now,
soft-launching in 2021-22 before it became a state graduation requirement
beginning with the Class of 2023.

I oversee an independent study technology Capstone option, and our full
program page can be explored here: SHS Capstone Experience
<https://www.simsbury.k12.ct.us/schools/shs/departments/shs-capstone>.

Any questions, let me know, thanks!

Mike
