Mentor-guided capstone and passion projects enabling students to stand out
Student-defined goals
Each project begins with a clear objective shaped around what the student wants to build, launch or lead, informed by their interests, strengths and direction
Action-oriented, real-world work
Capstone projects focus on doing — turning ideas into action and producing outcomes that exist beyond the classroom
Structured guidance and accountability
Students receive ongoing guidance to plan, execute and complete impactful projects, with regular checkpoints that reinforce progress and follow-through
Flexible project formats
Projects may include leadership or advocacy initiatives, civic or community efforts, entrepreneurial ventures or creative and interdisciplinary portfolios
Substantial, sustained work
Projects are scoped to require meaningful effort over time, emphasizing depth, persistence and completion rather than one-off activities
Built with admissions in mind
Capstone projects highlight initiative, leadership and impact, providing concrete evidence of ownership and follow-through
