Senior Information 

Please pay your Senior Class Dues.  Dues are mandatory for seniors!  They cover the cost of cap and gown, Senior Breakfast, bus transportation to DAR and all other graduation expenses. Dues are $100 and can be paid online at 

 MySchoolBucks.com.

 

WE NEED YOU: Ethics Day Committee needs your help to facilitate an all-day program on March 14th for 525 Langley high school seniors!  If you are a parent of an underclassman, PLEASE consider volunteering for this rewarding event (friends and neighbors are welcome to volunteer as well, please spread the word!), no experience needed.

Ethics Day encourages seniors to determine their own ethical framework and equips them with decision-making tools they can use in life after high school when confronting ethical dilemmas.  Speakers present situations in three different sessions and as a volunteer you only encourage dialog among the seniors in small-group table discussions.  It really is amazing to watch the young adults articulate their positions and collaborate with each other, a heart-warming snapshot of teens at Langley.

You can find more information and sign up here or contact Danica Alink at danica.alink@hotmail.com.
