Update on Yearbooks
Unfortunately, when our yearbooks arrived at school, we discovered they need to be reprinted. Now that we have more details about the reprinting process, we wanted to share this information with our families.
Yearbooks will not be ready by the end of the school year. We anticipate receiving them by the last week of July, though we are hopeful they may arrive sooner.
Once they are received, we will schedule collection times, where families can stop by Wheeler to pick up their yearbook.
Students who are unable to come to Wheeler during the collection times will have the following options:
• Pick up their yearbook from the school office during summer office hours, or
• Receive their yearbook when school begins in August
Any 5th grade students who do not pick up their yearbook over the summer will have their yearbook sent to their new JCPS middle school at the start of the school year.
We apologize for this change from our usual timeline, but we are grateful to now have more information to share and look forward to getting these yearbooks into students’ hands as soon as possible.
Go Wildcats,
Mr. Meredith
