SENIORS ... it's time to order senior ads for the 23-24 yearbook. Full content is due NO LATER THAN 12/19/23!! You should have gotten a hard copy of the order form from your English teacher a couple of weeks ago. If you need a new one, please see Mrs. Shade in room 43. We will be making the ads "in-house" this year so they can be more individualized. A proof will be sent to the email listed on your order form. Please see the attachments for an example form filled out for an 1/8 page ad AND for a 1/4 page ad. The highlighted parts get emailed to lshade@pikeland.org. Alexis Ator's mom was the first to turn everything in, so I've also attached what her ad looks like to give you an example of how we're personalizing ads this year. They will be made by myself and Yearbook Business Manager, Marley Hoover (senior). Alexis' ad is an 1/8 page ad. She chose a neutral color scheme and FFA and dance for her graphics.

Saukee Nation is generously matching our Saukee magnet sales up to $500 and thanks to the support of our amazing community, WE HAVE HIT THAT GOAL!! We will be set up at the ticket-taking booths at the following HOME Football and Volleyball games selling them (VB 10/2, 10/3, 10/12 & FB 10/13). We will also be selling them at the Turkey Tournament (during Saukee games ONLY). This fundraiser will help us recoup part of the cost of buying 2 new sports lenses for sports action photography. Remember that we share out a Shutterfly album at the end of the school year with every picture we take at no cost. We would appreciate the support! They are $8.00 each. Come and see us at home games, or contact myself or one of my Yearbook staff members to order. My email is lshade@pikeland.org. They would make great stocking stuffers for Christmas. 🙂

We are so grateful to SRO Weir for taking time to speak with Ms. Bradley's English classes. He's been sharing his perspective on "the day that changed everything" for our country, including today's students - 9/11. He has shared what it looked like to be a country of unity on 9/12, as well as the challenge to be the change in the world today. Thank you for you service to our schools and our community, Officer Weir. "Every morning, you have the choice to be 9/11 or be 9/12."
