My Project

The Reflections yearbook staff is creating volume 47 of the school Yearbook. We are hoping to update one of our nice cameras so that our staff of 12 can have another camera that takes high quality pictures.

Our publications team consists of 24 students working on our yearbook, newspaper, podcast, and video annoucements.

As a Title 1 building there are often times not funds for our program due to other building needs. This camera will help us prepare our students for High School. Thank you for supporting CTE programs in our Middle Schools.
