Yearbook Announcement
THE AERIE's Vol. 50 yearbook themed as "SPOTLIGHT," bridges the gap between our near 50-year history and the present. With that being said, there are 76 books left! We will NOT be placing an additional order for extra copies. Once the books are sold out, we are officially sold out.
The price is $95, and the book can be purchased online at Balfour.com OR in-person with cash or check (made out to RCHS) brought directly to Mr. Marsh in room 2104 or the Yearbook Room (during 1st period/lunch). The yearbook staff recommends purchasing your book in person, as the Balfour website isn't the easiest place to navigate.

These shots were taken by our yearbook adviser Mr. Marsh, who along with several members of the yearbook staff, spent their day off on Good Friday working to complete the yearbook at Drip Kitchen and Coffee. They were extremely thankful for the full day off from school so that they could work to complete the book.
