Get a sneak peek at yearbooks and help Mr. Schumacher!!

This year’s yearbook advisor Mr. Schumacher needs help adding the supplements into the 800 yearbooks. The supplement is 4 pages and has one strip of glue that needs to be carefully added to the back of all yearbooks. He is looking for about 4 volunteers. We are not sure exactly how long this will take, but based on previous years 4-5 people should be able to get it done in one school day. We need to finish it by next Friday to give our bookkeeper enough time to finish processing the books. So any school day between now and June 9th is fine, we will pick a day that works for the most volunteers.

Please email schumacherj@issaquah.wednet.edu if you would like to volunteer.
