Sophomores & Juniors, Check Your Yearbook Picture and Name This Week!
Sophomores and Juniors, yearbook picture and name proofs are posted outside the library for you to check this week. Please check your picture and your name so that it is printed correctly in the yearbook. If you find a mistake, scan the QR code and explain the error so that it gets addressed by yearbook staff. Then, check your email regularly, because yearbook staff will email you about the resolution to the problem. If the QR code doesn't work for you, stop by room 316 during 5th hour yearbook class and we can help you. We want everyone to like their yearbook picture -- so be sure you check yours today! Mistakes cannot be corrected after the pages go to print -- so be sure you check your picture and name ASAP.
