Any students who still need to pick up their yearbooks can do so in lab 227 during 6th period. Again, if you were not at school and still need to pick up your yearbook, you can do that in the upstairs computer lab anytime during 6th period.  

If you did not purchase a yearbook but would like to have one of your own, we still have some available. The cost is $100, and they can be purchased in the front office.
