Senior Pictures and Profiles Due
Hello Seniors: On November 9, 2022 you should have received an email from Mr. Jeff Willauer, Yearbook Advisor. The message was sent to your school email and was in regards to submission of senior items. Seniors, please read that email in its entirety so you are well aware of the November 30, 2022 deadline to submit your senior items. To date, only 21% of the senior class has submitted a senior photo. A few senior profiles were also submitted.
Here are some reminders:
- There is no cost obligation to have your senior picture in the yearbook. Upload your photo via the directions here https://whs.waunakee.k12.wi.us/familiesstudents/yearbook
- The optional parts of the senior profile (quote + nickname + baby photo) are not required and a $25 fee does apply. If only a baby picture is submitted, fee will still apply because of the extra space required to create this section.
- If you choose not to submit a senior photo the yearbook staff will use your ID photo that was received from Lifetouch Photography, if one is available. If no photo is available you will be listed as not pictured. If you are having difficulty obtaining a senior photo please talk to Mr. Willauer in room 1405 BEFORE the deadline as there are options to explore to make sure you are included.
For questions regarding this information, please contact Mrs. Richardson in the High School office.
