Finally! After a year of learning, laboring and living with the projects they chose, designed and managed, Roaring Fork  High School seniors presented their creations to the junior class. The juniors are about to start their own projects this Spring. According to Capstone Coordinator Nannette Weinhold, each student, based on their individual interests, decides what the topic of their exploration will be. The student then works with a community member who is an expert in that field.

The presentations were held on Feb. 23 and 24.
