As Everest Collegiate seniors finish their high school years, they have demonstrated all the formation and learning they have achieved through final senior projects. Prior to final exams, they have shared their knowledge and academic abilities particular through their senior capstone presentations and final senior debate as well as through final papers and tests. The EC graduate profile states, “They have developed a coherent view of the world, humanity, and God that integrates faith and reason. Excellent communicators, they can speak and write clearly, conveying a message or emotion through suitable media.”
We congratulate the Class of 2025 on their impressive capstone presentations. Fifteen seniors participated in the senior capstone course, described in the course catalog as the “culmination of a student’s intellectual formation.” With the support of a faculty advisor, these students researched and presented a topic. Their presentations were a demonstration of the level of academic preparedness these seniors have achieved.
