               Form II will engage our 
              students with more challenging academic work across curricula with 
              more extensive community service in a variety of settings in the 
              City of New York. The staff will concentrate on the new standards, 
              developing habits of mind and higher-order thinking skills, which 
              will be required for the more advanced curriculum in the Senior 
              Institute.  
  FORM II PORTFOLIO In Form II, the components of the portfolio will 
              be similar to form I. However, a position paper in the Humanities 
              will replace the research paper; a math/science project demonstrating 
              the scientific method; and foreign Language Project will be added.
