Want to help document the 2021-2022 school year?
Yearbook Club is looking for new members who are interested in contributing to the 2021-2022 yearbook. We need photographers, designers, and people who love meet and talk to strangers about their lives. Are you shy or hesitant talking to people? Wearing the “yearbook hat” gives you confidence and purpose to engage in real conversation about what matters.

Stop by Room 323 for a staff info sheet / application to work on this year’s 140-page yearbook! Email Mrs. McGoldrick (yearbook club advisor) at dmcgoldrick@d131.org with any questions.
