The English High Student Council is sponsoring a "Scholarship Golf Outing" at Lynn's Gannon Municipal Golf Course to raise scholarship money for seniors headed off to college. The economy has changed many student plans and goals, causing some to wonder if college is within reach.
Businesses and English High alumni are invited to help by golfing during the event, sponsoring a hole or buying an ad in the program booklet. Proceeds from this event will go directly to scholarship assistance awarded during the school's "Senior Week."
Every dollar will help a senior with tuition, college fees and/or books. Email Tim Ring at This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.

LYNN — Lynn English High School students strutted their style on the red carpet Thursday night for friends and family as part of the school’s first ever fashion show.

The show featured more than two dozen students who marched — hands on hips — down a red carpet laid out at the school’s library. The boys and girls showcased their everyday wear, spring styles and formal prom outfits as student announcers listed off fun facts about each model and music blared from speakers.

View a photo gallery of the event.

The show, orchestrated by Lynn English librarian Linda Barefield, is a fundraiser for the class of 2012, but it also provided students like Chabeli Hernandez an outlet to do something creative.

“I’m all about fashion,” the senior said before the show. “I love fashion, I live, breathe and eat it.”

LYNN — From 1930s Broadway to the 3-D movie “Kung Fu Panda,’” Lynn English High School drama students are reliving the history of Hollywood in a collection of songs, dances and sketches they’ll perform for the public this weekend.
The series of performances, called a revue, will span decades of popular film moments from the 20th and 21st century, said Lynn English’s drama club director, Larry Lowe.
“It’s all songs that are in the popular lexicon of music,” he said.
Students jigged to “Mary Poppins’” “Chim Chim Cheree” and hustled to the disco piece “Night Fever” from the 1970s dance film “Saturday Night Fever,” during a recent rehearsal that capped off two months of work.
Rehearsing for the review taught students about the history of American film, Lowe said.
View a photo gallery of the rehearsal.
In a silent black-and-white film the students acted in, edited and produced for the review, an old-time producer recruits a waitress at a diner for a show.
Freshman Caitlyn Sawyer said scenes like that opened her eyes to Broadway in the early 20th century, before Hollywood was a big thing.
