Dear LREI Community,
I invite you to join me in celebrating the fantastic class of 2024! In one month they will graduate and move on to enjoy their lives as high school graduates, having joined the proud ranks of LREI alumni. They will move from counting down to graduation to moving ever closer to their next adventure.
Speaking of what comes next for the seniors, you can find the colleges and universities in which the Class of 2024 has matriculated here, where you will also be able to see all of the schools to which this class and earlier classes have been admitted. We are so very proud of their accomplishments and could not be more excited about what is to come next for these amazing young adults.
If you can join our annual college panel — a gathering to hear from a small group of seniors about the college process — you will learn about some of the LREI experiences that helped them be so attractive to the wide range of schools to which they have matriculated.
- You will hear about the scope of classes that inspired the panelists.
- You will learn about all of the extracurricular activities that displayed the passions of these 12th graders during their middle school and high school years.
- Through the kids’ memories, you will join all of the trips — countless day trips and nine overnight trips, that are an integral component of our program.
- Students will share the importance of the diverse group of classmates with whom they have spent their days, their deeply meaningful relationships, and the support and challenge they have offered each other.
- The seniors will express their gratitude for the talented teachers who create the deeply meaningful moments through which these students have learned and grown, some for 14 years.
This journey, these remarkable experiences, and the amazing teachers are all hallmarks of an LREI education. Hearing our seniors recount their time is one of my favorite moments of the year and is a terrific opportunity to celebrate their successes.
Here are additional ways to celebrate our 14-year educational experience:
-
‘24 College Process Panel – Hear a panel of seniors share their experiences of LREI’s amazing college guidance process and meet our college counselors. Tuesday, May 21 at 8:45am in the Sixth Avenue cafeteria.
-
Join us on Instagram Live to watch the Senior Appreciation Assembly at the beginning of Field Day – Friday, May 24, at approximately 9 a.m. – @LREI on Instagram.
We are so very proud of the Class of 2024. They are truly incredible.
Best,
