Plan ahead and pre-order your yearbook today! Yearbooks are planned to be distributed in May.

The yearbook traditionally includes messages from parents/guardians of 5th graders to their students. These are a way to congratulate them for their transition from Elementary School to Middle School, marking an important milestone in their lives. All 5th grade parents/guardians are encouraged to submit a message to your student (due to limited space, please limit messages to 1 per student). This should be a brief message (600 Characters or less, this includes each letter, punctuation, and space) that will be included in a special section of the yearbook. Also, if you choose, your message may be written in your native language.

Sample messages include:

“We are so proud of the accomplishments you have made so far! Good luck next year in Middle School!” Love Mom, Dad and Sister

“You will make mistakes but don’t give in – it's all an experience. Wishing you the best as you find your star and reach for it!” – Love your family.
