Yearbook Distribution Day will be Tuesday, May 14 on a morning assembly schedule. Yearbooks will be distributed to students who have purchased them during 1st period, as students will be called by grade to the B-Gym to pick up their yearbooks. Students who have not yet purchased a book will have the opportunity to purchase one for $85, cash only, when their grade is called down. The yearbooks are sold on a first-come, first-serve basis and will likely sell out as there are only 95 copies available on hand that day. No yearbooks will be sold before then, and no books will be reserved that have not already been purchased. You may email rahale@ortn.edu if you would like Ms. Hale to check and see if you have purchased a book already. After first period on May 14, no more yearbooks will be sold until 5th period on Wednesday, May 15 to give Ms. Hale time to close out her accounting procedures for the day. Thank you for supporting the yearbook! R. Hale
