“The Truth About the L-S Party Scene”

The students of SADD (Students Against Destructive Decisions) and their advisors present an annual Community Connections night on “The Truth About the L-S Party Scene” on Wednesday, Feb. 10 at 7:30 p.m. in the L-S cafeteria. SADD students have assembled a panel of LSRHS students to give honest and candid responses to questions regarding what L-S teens are doing at parties. The evening will be set up with students in one room and parents in the other, and a voice-altering microphone will enable parents and student to remain anonymous to one another. The evening will feature a mutual education for both parents and students as to what’s really going on out there and what parents are wondering about.
