Buckingham Friends School celebrated the Class of 2019 at their graduation ceremony last month in the historic Buckingham Friends Meetinghouse. The evening featured musical performances by students and music teacher Richard Cox, reading of class histories, an address by Melissa Clayton, Director of Admissions and Financial Aid, and individual statements from teachers to each of the 17 graduates before Head of School Paul Lindenmaier presented them with their diplomas. Everyone at BFS wishes the recent graduates much success and happiness as they continue their educational paths next year at the following independent schools: Berkley Carroll School, George School, Germantown Academy, Delaware Valley Friends School, Abington Friends School, Pennington School, and La Salle College High School.
