As their final project at School of the Woods, the Woods High School Seniors (12th grade) present their Senior Thesis to the school community, their advisors, and their Senior Thesis Teacher.
Below is a listing of their thesis titles, the name of the student, and the date and time of the presentation. You are invited to attend these presentations.
The presentations take place in Woods High School.
We ask that you arrive a few minutes prior to the start time and stay through the entire presentation. Once the presentation starts, you will not be permitted to enter the room and you must stay until the end.
We hope you are able to attend and support the students while hearing about a topic that interests you. This is a great way to learn about Woods High School and the Senior Thesis Program.
