REMINDER: 2022/23 Yearbook Purchase & Options
Don’t miss out on the opportunities listed below to contribute yearbook photos, order yearbooks, become a donor and to purchase a celebration message for your 8th grader. If you have questions, please reply to this email or call Deb Mullen at (541) 355-7801.
Yearbook Photo Contributions
Last year we asked families to contribute photos for the yearbook. It was so successful, we are asking again! Please feel free to upload your images to this shared folder. When you do, title the image with the people in it and the activity. For example: “cassidycookandfamilyfishing.jpg” or “8thgradeboysbasketball.jpg”.
We can’t promise that your uploaded photos will be selected, but at the moment we are looking for photos for the following page themes:
- 8th graders!
- ALL Fall sports
- Performing Arts
- Out-of-School Community and Family
- And “Funny Photos of Friends”
Purchasing a Yearbook for Your Student(s)
These high quality yearbooks are published by Herff Jones and include hard covers and 40+ full color pages packed full of memories. A yearbook costs $20.00 and should be purchased online via our TouchBase payment system. You will enter your student’s ID number and last name; click on “fines & fees”; click on “items at PCMS”, click on “yearbook items” and click items you want to purchase. If you wish to purchase with cash or check (made payable to PCMS), deliver it to the main office.
Yearbook Donations
As mentioned several weeks ago, one of our goals this year is to rekindle the middle school experience. We believe, yearbooks are a big part of the middle school social experience for kids. This year, we want every single student to have a yearbook placed in their hand at the end of the school year. We appreciate any support you can provide. The suggested donation is $20. Donors who give at the Golden Circle level (between $20 – $30) and donations at the Eagle level (between $30 – $50) will receive name recognition in the yearbook. We appreciate your understanding of PCMS’s equity goal to insure all students enjoy taking home a book of middle school memories. Donate via our online TouchBase payment system.
8th Grade Celebration Message
Do you have an 8th grade student you would like to wish them success as they leave the PCMS Nest to soar onto high school? How about a special message from family, relatives and friends that will permanently reside in our 2022/23 yearbook to be enjoyed forever! Note that yearbook space is limited and this is only for families of 8th graders. Once you have purchased your message space, via our online TouchBase payment system, you will receive an email with instructions and a link for submitting your message and photo(s). If you wish to purchase with cash or check (made payable to PCMS), deliver it to the main office.
