Welcome to Senior Seminar!
We are all excited that you are here and looking forward to all of the wonderful accomplishments that we will do together over the course of the year. The goal of the class is to help our IRCHS Seniors prepare for their future in terms of choosing a postsecondary education, entering the workforce, or joining the armed forces by establishing and following a personalized plan or "track." Students will follow their tracks and build an ePortfolio to use for college applications, scholarship applications, military enlistment, and job searches.
Each student will have a plan for Life After Charter!
