YEARBOOK
Kickoff Raffle
LHS Journalism will be selling raffle tickets for a free 2011 yearbook the first three days of school - Wednesday September 1 through Friday September 3 - during both lunches. Tickets prices are $1 for 1 and $5 for 10. The winning number will be announced at the end of the school day on Friday September 3. The raffle is open to students, faculty, and staff. Don't miss this chance to be the first to order your 2011 yearbook free of charge.
Yearbook Sales
The sale of the 2011 book will begin at Open House. The price for that one night only will be the lowest discount price of the year - a mere $70. This is a steeply discounted early bird price, so it pays to order early! The 2011 theme and cover will also be revealed to the public at Open House.
After Open House, books will be sold for $80 until the holiday break. At that time, no more orders will be taken until delivery in May. Those who purchase books after they are delivered will pay the full price of $90. However, students may purchase the books on a layaway plan, beginning in September and ending in January, for $16 per month.
Yearbook Overstock Sale
Due to the late delivery of yearbooks back in June, we still have over 100 copies of the 2010 edition of Horizons left to sell. In order to move such a large volume at such a late date, we will be selling the 2010 book for just $30. This is the perfect opportunity to pick up a book if you were not able to in June or to purchase an additional copy for yourself, friends, or family. You can purchase a copy in the main office or at Open House.
