Meeting Minutes

Here are the meeting minutes for December 2011 and January 2012. Check them out!

Last Chance for Yearbooks!

Last chance to order a yearbook for 2011-2012 school year. Unfortunately, unless you pre-order, you aren’t guaranteed a book. Only pre-ordered books are printed - a few extra are sent by the printing company which will be sold on a first-come-first -served basis for $25 at the ice cream social this spring.

So…if you want a yearbook, now is the time to secure it. Don’t miss out. Orders must be received or placed online by January 16! Order online at Jostens!
