Signup for a volunteer role:
There are dozens of different roles that need to be filled to ensure a fantastic event. Working on the Last Night event is fun and rewarding. Bring a friend along to share the event with!
We have divided our volunteer needs into two categories - Pre and post-event help and help during the event. Click on one (or both!) of the buttons below to signup for a volunteer slot.
All volunteers also need to be CORI-checked by the Last Night organization.
Complete a CORI form: Because of the nature of the work at the school and around students all Last Night volunteers must be CORI checked. See the section on this page for information about completing a CORI.
Have questions? Please contact us at info@walastnight.org.
IT TAKES A VILLAGE
Preparation for Last Night at Westford Academy is a year-round effort. From start to finish, Last Night is the product of hundreds of volunteers.
Last Night is an all-night, alcohol-free, and substance-free evening of festivities for the graduating seniors at Westford Academy.
Pay it forward
We rely heavily on parents of underclassmen and younger grades for the event so that the parents of Seniors can enjoy graduation. Parents of Seniors can still help before the event, after the event, or on the Registration Committee.
We need hundreds of volunteers to come together to host the event for the Westford Academy Graduating class on their graduation night. One “Last Night” at WA. The memories last a lifetime.
Last Night CORI checks volunteers
Since our volunteers work in the school building while students are there and with students during the event we take the precaution of CORI checking our volunteers.
Most Frequent Question
"I am CORIed through Westford Schools, do I still need to fill out another?"
Unfortunately yes, even though the Last Night event enjoys very strong support from the School District, we are a separate organization. Due to privacy concerns, we do not have access to the CORI records that the school maintains.
