SPHS Magnet

Senior Curriculum

Picture

Overview

​     Graduation from the magnet program requires all students to complete a final project that reflects what they have learned over the past four years.
     To facilitate the completion of students' project, all seniors are required to be enrolled in 
Honors Experimental Science 4. The textbook for the course is STEM Research Handbook (ISBN 1-936137-24-4) author Darci J. Harland.    
​     The work they've completed for their project will culminate at the Senior Symposium, a juried exhibition that will have three distinct components: a project with a portfolio, an oral presentation and a demonstration along with an exhibit for the judges to evaluate

Grades for Experimental Science 4 are determined in this manner:
          25 percent Research Curriculum

          50 percent Project
          25 percent Service Learning

     In the past, senior field trips have included visits to Fairchild Tropical Gardens, Riverwoods, Key West, the Main Entrance to Everglades National Park, the Nationa Solar Car Challenge, Flagler Museum, the Museum of Discovery and Science and the Historical Museum of South Florida.

     In order to earn a green cord to wear at graduation, in addition to completing the project and presenting it at the symposium, seniors must earn four science credits while at South Plantation High School.
