Pre-requisites: None
Credits: 1-5
Special projects credits are designed to recognize work undertaken by students on an individual or small group basis and should not be used as a means of offering credits for unapproved courses. Students may enroll in Special Projects 10, 20 or 30. Special Projects 20 and Special Projects 30 do not have prerequisites.
PURPOSE
Special projects credits perform two major
functions:
• Students become involved in the selection,
planning and organization of their own
programs.
• Students pursue activities in which they have
considerable interest or ability but which are
not within the scope of the regular curriculum
or the programs being offered in the school.
