Evergreen Contract   Parent Student Letter

Please see calendar for full meeting schedule.

There is a mandatory parents meeting on October 11th from 5:30-6:30p in the Weston Library.

Weston ADAP YLC program has sent out invitations via email to past year’s members.
For further information or if you are interested in joining YLC this coming year please send an email to westonadapylc@gmail.com.

Weston ADAP is currently looking for parent volunteers. Please contact westonadapylc@gmail.com.

Due to lack of parent involvement we will need to scale back the programming we provide; this includes NOT being able to offer the Evergreen and Mt Laurel dances, which have no chairpeople and have been VERY understaffed (chaperones) in the past few years.

b. Express Yourself in a Healthy Way,
c. Achieve Natural Highs, and
d. Don’t Be Afraid to Take A Stand

Here’s What You Can Do to Help Keep Prom Goers and New Graduates Safe:

• Know Your Teens’ Plans and tell them to update you if the itinerary changes so you’re aware of their whereabouts.
• Check In With Them Via Text – they are more likely to reply, since it’s discreet. You can send messages like “Hope ur having a gr8 time!” or “U OK?” before and after the dance.
• Trust Your Teens and resist the urge to hover. You’ve filled them in on the rules and the risks – chances are they got the message.

A national new study of 11^th and 12^th grade students confirmed that teens don’t recognize the dangers of driving on prom and graduation night, even though they think their peers may be more likely to drink on these occasions. Each year, approximately 5,000 young people under the age of 21, die as a result of underage drinking: 1,900 deaths from motor vehicle crashes, as well as hundreds from other injuries such as falls, burns and drowning.
