Yearbook Delivery

Yearbook Distribution

Coming back from a year of working remotely (with the exception of yearbook, students had to be here to be on the yearbook staff last year), many students struggled with adjusting to working at school and getting things done in a timely manner.  Sadly, we never met the deadlines given to us by our publisher to have the book created and delivered by the May 20 deadline.  Because the deadlines weren't met, the yearbooks won't be delivered until the end of July.  We will have yearbook distribution the 1st week of August.  We will post the actual days in which the yearbook can be picked up, and what to do, for seniors, if you have left for college before distribution.  It will be as simple as arranging ahead of time, who will pick up your yearbook for you.

On behalf of the yearbook staff, I apologize for not getting the yearbook completed in time for a spring distribution.  

The good news:  We have included PROM in the yearbook for the first time ever!  Our book still remains the largest book in DISD at a really reasonable cost.

Please check back here for exact dates and times for distribution.
