Hi everyone,

I asked my principal about Capstone projects today, and I think I opened up a gigantic can of worms.  Now I'm looking for advice on how other school districts handle it.  If your school has a Capstone I'd love any information you'd be willing to share.  I'm looking for specific on the following:

* What grade level is it done in?
* Half year or full year?
* Does it count as a grade?
* What is your role with the project as an LMS?
* How are teachers involved?
* How is it presented at the end? (small group, science fair-style, community event?...)

Feel free to email me off list.  I appreciate your help!

“The best way to measure how much you've grown isn't by inches or the number of laps you can now run around the track, or even your grade point average-- though those things are important, to be sure. It's what you've done with your time, how you've chosen to spend your days, and whom you've touched this year. That, to me, is the greatest measure of success.” - R.J. Palacio, Wonder
