The senior honors project is offered to seniors with a 3.0 (or higher) GPA and they can opt into participating in the project during the second semester of their senior year. Each senior that opts into this project has to create a project and get an adviser to help them. There have been many seniors at LCN that have been a part of this experience and many of them recommend it to underclassmen when they become seniors.
