LASA celebrated the Class of 2025 this May with a conversation about next steps and introductions to LASA alums. Thanks to Harvard Westlake Dean Sharon Cuseo for sharing her tips about college and scholarship research as we all enter the summer.<\/p>\n

\"Speaker<\/p>\n

Congratulations also to the winners of the Francine Werner Summer Research Prize – Nina, Alastair, Josh, Layah, and Genevieve. We look forward to celebrating their summer research projects upon completion in the fall.<\/p>\n

Thank you to all the LASA teachers, speakers, and students who made this year possible. Special thanks to teachers Katherine, Norm, and Sonia who will be moving on next year. We hope all the alums and our “graduating” teachers keep in touch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n <\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
