Good afternoon, the deadline for yearbook senior ads is quickly approaching, and students and parents may be wondering where and how to submit their ad. The deadline to submit senior ad paperwork is November 8th with pictures being due by November 18th. Senior ads are located in the back of the yearbook and are a way for parents and or family members to congratulate their young adults on graduating high school. They are composed of pictures of the student and a note written from parents, guardians, siblings or anyone interested in purchasing a space for the student. Ad packets can be picked up from the front office or by emailing the business team at fhs.yearbook@macon.k12.nc.us Thank you and if you have any questions please feel free to contact a member of the FHS Laurel Leaf team.
