Saga Yearbook Application
Deadline extended!  Please have your complete application (which includes 2 teacher recs) submitted by 5/3/24.
Thank you for applying to be a part of the yearbook staff!  Please note that you will need to turn in two teacher recommendations (due by the same time as your application).  Send these two teachers the Google Form link so they can complete the rec. (link is at the beginning of the form)  
Applications and recs are due by 3/18/24.  We will alert you if your application is accepted and you will move to the next step, a live interview (either via Zoom or in-person, depending on the circumstances).  After checking your discipline record to make sure it's clean, we will then decide if you are given a place on the staff.  Good luck!
