LCHS Class of 2009 - College and Future Plans (Updated 5/14/09)

Many students will not receive college acceptance letters until after April 1, 2009. Acceptances and decisions will continue to be added through June, 2009. People keep asking why so many of our students are going to Salem State College or North Shore Community College. Many of our students have received Early Decision acceptances from these local colleges but they are not committed to go to these schools.

This page is intended for Seniors and their families to share their future plans with their classmates. We are pleased to add information about Seniors who have been accepted to various colleges, have decided on military service, are planning to attend Technical Schools, or have made other career decisions. We are happy to receive information from parents, also. Please email the webmaster at brasss@lynnschools.org . Thank you.

Seniors Jomaira Salas and  Wiselene Dorceus have been awarded full 'Posse' Scholarships.  Jomaira is going to Bryn Mawr College (Pennsylvania) and Wiselene will be attending Denison College. Scroll to the bottom of this page for the full story.

Congratulations !

 Jomaira Salas     Wiselene Dorceus

We have TWO POSSE SCHOLARS selected this year!!!  Senior Jomaira Salas has been awarded a Posse Scholarship to Bryn Mawr College (Pennsylvania) and Senior Wiselene Dorceus  has been awarded a Posse Scholarship to Denison University (Ohio) . The Posse Scholarship is for a FULL  4  YEARS !!! The "DAP" Dynamic Application Process culled these ladies from over 2500 recommended candidates from Posse Boston only.

Posse started because of one student who said he never would have dropped out of college if he had his “posse” with him. That simple idea, of sending a group (or posse) of students together to college so they could “back each other up,” became the impetus for a program that today has sent hundreds of students to top-tier colleges throughout the United States.
