- Dear Mentor:
] On benalt of Northgate High School we would like to thank :
; we wor you for agreeing to be a
‘mentor for a Senior Project. This project is a graduation requirement consisting of three
et Paper, a mentored project, and a presentation before a panel of judges.
Mentors are most important in helping students produce a project that applies thi
luce a projé ie
Jenowledge gained during the paper-wrlting phase. The project challenges them to go
beyond the experiences they have had in the past. While not all mentored projects are
directly tangible, students must produce actual documentation to verify their 15 hours.
Shadowing alone is insufficient. While one student might rebuild an engine, another
might run in the Bay-to-Breakers or stage a dance routine.
‘As a mentor, we ask that you do the following:
1, Review the Letter of Intent that your student will provide to describe his or her
Senior Project.
2, Read, evaluate, and comment on a draft of your student's paper for accuracy and
sufficient research if qualified on the topic. ifnot, student will need to find another
reader with expertise on the topic.
3, Help your student define his or her mentored project clearly and decide at what
‘point it will be considered complete.
4, Be certain that he mentored project requires the student to be challenged.
5. Meet with your student several times to provide help and advice to make the project
a success, The mentored project must be completed by May 9, 2017.
Please keep a copy of this letter for yourself and return the other with the student. Your
efforts are greatly appreciated by both the student and the Northgate staff. Our Senior
Project program would be imposeible without the help of mentors like you. If you have
‘any questions, feel free to call the school at the number above,
