The Portfolio is a place for you and your teachers to add artifacts that showcase meaningful work aligned to specific skills. Artifacts are any schoolwork or achievements (like essays or projects) that demonstrate the skills you've developed.

  • Artifacts can be added and viewed by you and teachers.

  • All artifacts can be edited or deleted by you.

  • Teachers can only edit or delete artifacts that they have added.

  • If a teacher adds an artifact, their name will be listed under the artifact title.
