Newbury High School has introduced a Senior Capstone course.  The Capstone
Leadership Class helps prepare seniors for the real world focusing on
topics such as personal finance, college and career readiness, interviewing
and other professional skills, and other topics to prepare them for life
after high school. Part of this course is to complete a Capstone Leadership

   volunteer their time with their organization.

   best serve the organization with their volunteer hours and submit the final
   plan to the teacher.
