How do senior projects at HTHI compare to HTH?
During their senior year, HTHI students must complete and pass a senior project in order to graduate. Students will be asked to explore a topic of their choice in-depth, potentially one that relates to an international issue that has not yet been resolved. At High Tech High, students choose an area of specialization, such as engineering, art and design, multimedia, etc., and complete a senior project under the guidance of a mentor in that field. The program at HTH International will likely be structured in the same way, but may offer different areas of specialization, such as environmental studies, international design and architecture, religion and philosophy, etc. At the end of the semester, students will present their work to a panel of students, teachers and professionals from the community. If students do not pass their senior project the first time, they will be sent to the Board of Academic Review and may be given the opportunity to present their senior project a second time.
