Reminders for Senior Parents!!!
Don’t forget to get your parent ad in for your senior! You still have time to ‘congratulate’ your senior on all of their accomplishments. Send in your picture, words and check for $45.00 to reserve your space in the yearbook. All senior ads will need to be in by mid April. If you do not want to purchase one of these ads, please email and say that you do not want to partake in this offer. We need a definite yes or no.
All seniors will need to turn in 3 senior pictures by the first week in April. One is needed for the yearbook (a vertical picture), one for the class board, and one for the Wahoo Newspaper. The same picture will do for all three or you may choose to use 3 different poses—it is up to you. If you want to send the pictures for the yearbook and newspaper via email that is fine—you may email them to or you can send them in, and the journalism staff will scan them. However, we will not be able to print one for the senior class board, you will have to supply the actual print.
Parents: if you did not send with your students your two reams of paper at the start of school it would be great if you could do so at this time. Please check the list on the front office window to see if your student’s name is listed. If it is on the list then you still need to bring in two reams of paper. If you brought paper in and your name is on the list, please stop by the office. Thank you for helping to keep our supply cost down! Thank you to those that have brought paper and especially those that turned paper in twice!
