Your Portfolio- The Final Stretch

Hey Gang,

Now that we are into the second half of the school year I thought I'd give you the rest of the due dates for your Work Experience Portfolio categories.

Work Experience Portfolio

Category Due Dates

In order to have your portfolio done by April 8, 2011, the following assignments with due dates are shown. The due dates with asterisks* are for those students who have started co-op at a later date.

Completed Work Experience Portfolios will be submitted to the Cooperative Education Coordinator’s office, E100, by 3:20 pm on April 8/2011.

As always, if you need help, come see me at my office.

^Note change in point value from original rubric given to you with your portfolio assignment.

You can certainly work ahead and turn in your assignments early. Not a bad idea in case senioritous starts to set in.

The portfolios will be graded and then will be displayed in the guidance office. Several teachers, guidance counselors, secretaries and administrators will determine what they feel are the seven best. I do not have a say in this. I will then take the seven best with me to my Advisory committee. That committee will vote for the best portfolio. Again, I have no voice in this. At the banquet, I will announce the best portfolio and that individual will receive a savings bond from Jersey Shore State Bank.

Though a sampling of you time sheets are due in your portfolio by April 8th, you will still be responsible to turn in time sheets until the end of the school year.

As a reminder, a number of you still owe the $20 co-op fee for the banquet. The banquet is on April 20th. It will start at 6:00 pm and be over by 7:30 pm.

Most of you did well this marking period. Your employers were pleased. Way to go!

Mr. B
