Further Requirement: Personal Project

In the final year of the program (10th grade), each IB MYP sophomore student is required to complete a Personal Project. This project culminates in a significant product designed and realized through the student's own initiative and creativity. Each student is responsible for their own choice of topic, development of criteria, planning implementation, and reflection on processes and progress. The entire process is explored through the lens of their chosen global context. All stages of the project are completed under the supervision of a teacher supervisor. Students produce a written report on their project which is assessed and scored by both Smoky Hill teachers and IB evaluators. Sophomores share their projects at our Personal Project Showcase and are recognized at our Personal Project Recognition Ceremony in April.
