Capstone Courses

There are two half-credit courses that will be required through the GHS Business Department:

Capstone I: Personal Finance

This course provides the informational and decision-making tools necessary for planning and implementing a successful personal financial plan for varied life situations. Students will participate in a mock interview which is an authentic simulation of how to apply and prepare for a job interview. The mock interview must be completed to earn class credit and graduation credit.

Capstone II: Capstone Experience

This course is preparation for your Griswold Graduate Showcase Presentation. Students will review and refine their gallery of artifacts and experiences from their years at GHS to present to a panel of district faculty to determine that the student meets the district's Vision of the Graduate. While students are creating their self-assessment gallery, they are given an opportunity to explore careers and create a plan for life after graduation. Students will have the opportunity to job shadow and interview professionals within their intended career paths as they begin to contemplate and assess various careers.
