Yearbook Information
-
The estimated delivery for the 2020-2021 yearbook is this August. Due to COVID and a lack of student events, sports, in-person classes, etc. the school elected to delay our deadlines this year in order to try to cover more of the school year. This means that the book’s publication is also delayed. If the books are delivered in early to mid-August, those students who preordered their yearbooks will be contacted in August to come and pick them up. If they are delivered in late August, we will just wait to pass them out during the first days of school.
Yearbooks are still available to order at Balfour.com

Students will receive caps and gowns, as well as JMB face masks, and pose for a picture. (Note: students who receive Honor Society cords/stoles will receive those on this date as well. Cords will be purchased this year only by the school and will be given to those students at no expense.) We are hoping to get a distanced picture of all graduates as well as graduates in their decorated parking space with the help of a drone. (Weather Permitting). Students will receive personalized yard signs from the senior class that they can proudly display at their homes. Students will receive their senior T-shirts also provided by the senior class. Seniors will be offered a bagged lunch and allowed to sit 6ft apart and socialize if they would like. Asking students to bring beach towel for social distancing lunch outside.
