Important reminders for the class of 2026! 🎓 1. Wednesday, October 22: Baby pictures with forms and yearbook ad orders are due to Mrs. Edmondson. Late ad orders cannot be accepted due to strict yearbook deadlines set by Jostens. 2. Wednesday, October 22: Jostens will be here from 11 - 6 in the lobby area outside the cafeteria to help with graduation/senior orders. Please stop by and see them during lunch, Focus or after school to get your cap, gown, tassel and diploma cover ordered. You can order your required graduation items WITH NO MONEY DOWN on Wednesday. If you are ordering more than just the required graduation items, YOU MUST BRING AT LEAST A $75 DEPOSIT. You will have to pay the remaining balance at some point between now and March. You can make payments at any time as needed during that time period as well. You are financially responsible for anything you order. 3. If you or your parent/guardian has ANY questions or concerns about purchasing your graduation items, PLEASE let Emily Guynn know. Remember, the longer you wait to order your cap and gown, the more expensive it will be. There is no reason for you not to get your order submitted on Wednesday. Thank you!!
