Seniors get 'sashed'

Administrator places sash around neck of cosmetology student

Albany High School's Cosmetology and Barbering programs sent off seniors with style, gifts and hugs on Friday at a sashing ceremony.

The seniors received handmade barbering and cosmetology sashes they will wear at graduation next Sunday, June 30.

The almost-grads completed three-year pathways (one student in both barbering and cosmetology!) in their fields of study. They’re ready to take their licensing exams then headed off to either college or the workforce after graduation.
