What happens if I get an "Incomplete" on my Portfolio 3rd quarter?
If you are a senior expecting to graduate, you MUST ATTEND PORTFOLIO NIGHT, and present your portfolio. If you attended and received an INCOMPLETE, you must contact Ms. LeBlanc to understand what is missing and how to properly complete your portfolio. After successful completion of your portfolio, then you and Ms. LeBlanc will work together to schedule a formal presentation to 3 Staff Members.
