The Portfolio Process

What is a Portfolio?
Your portfolio is all about YOU! Your senior portfolio is an organized collection of documents that verify your completion of selected high school requirements and your readiness for entry-level employment.

Summarizing your experiences in your portfolio documents will serve as a reminder of how important it is to get good grades in your classes, to attend school regularly, and to gain extracurricular experience related to your particular interests and passions by participating in clubs, sports teams, or volunteer service activities.


Graduation Ceremony Requirement
Completion and Clearance of the Senior Portfolio is required for participation in the graduation ceremony for University Senior High School Seniors. Incomplete portfolios WILL NOT be accepted and failure to complete all sections of the portfolio may prevent you from walking the stage in June 2012.
