Senior Projects at Tabor Academy

It’s that time of year – Tabor Academy seniors are showing off all of the hard work they have put into their senior projects this spring. Senior project presentations are underway at the school this week, and all the projects are presented in abstract on Friday morning.

Senior Projects allow seniors in good academic standing to drop classes in the last seven weeks as necessary in order to pursue a project of their own creation. Projects typically include original art and music, all manner of building projects from boats to motorcycles, and internships in business, government and nonprofit organizations from architectural firms and catering kitchens to hospitals. The Senior Projects Committee approves the projects after a rigorous application process.

Some examples from this year include restoring a dory, performing an original stand-up comedy routine, writing and performing an original play, creating an album of original music, and creating native costumes from the Caribbean, as well as various internships and research projects.

On Friday, the entire Tabor community attends Senior Project presentations, a capstone event that allows the seniors to show all they have learned during the project period.
