In an effort to increase student coverage in the SGES yearbook, the yearbook staff is seeking photos from school family and friends for potential use in the 2015-2016 Lance and Shield. If you have photos from a school event, class party, field trip, or other school-related activity that you would like to submit for possible use in the yearbook, the staff would be most appreciative! You can submit photos directly to the Josten's Yearbook Avenue platform by downloading the free ReplayIt-by Jostens app, or, by clicking on the link below. We will be able to take submissions through the end of February, so please upload photos as often as you like.

Do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions or concerns about the site, photos, or the yearbook. Thank you so much for your time and willingness to assist with the 2015-2016 Lance and Shield.
