Yearbook orders are ready to be placed for the 2022-2023 school year. This year, we are adding an extra option to help cover the cost of another student who may not be able to afford the cost of a yearbook. Let’s give every student the opportunity to remember their elementary years. If you can help, we appreciate it.
