Purpose

All Berlin High School Seniors engage in the Capstone experience to showcase their skills and passion.

Students will pursue ideas or challenges through the design and development of substantive questions and actions.

Passion

"What excites you?"

“What makes you curious?”

Conduct research on your topic that explores information that is new to you.
