School Community Projects

School Community Projects are created by you for the purpose of airing on our school closed-circuit television network.  You will create projects with groups that highlight leaders, leadership activities, school community interests.  

You will be given a project, a team and several weeks to produce your project.  When you are assigned your group, you will be given access to a Google Documents folder.  Follow the checklist for each project to make sure your team creates a great project.
