Senior Portraits
Seniors will sit for the complimentary yearbook photo during a senior photo day on Tuesday, Oct 22. English teachers will escort students during their class to the Aux. Gym on Oct. 22 for their portrait. Students not enrolled in an English class, including STEM, CCP, OASIS and DACC students, should get their pictures taken during their lunch or when they’re available during periods 1, 2, 11 or 12. The yearbook portrait requires a different attire and backdrop from the underclassman yearbook portrait. The required dress is a collared dress shirt for boys and girls should wear dress clothes with sleeves and avoid any low necklines. Here is the letter from HR Imaging explaining the complimentary yearbook photo. This photo is the only way to ensure that your senior is included in the 2025 yearbook. Email Mrs. Phillips if you have questions.

2023-2024 Yearbook
Pioneers - The yearbook staff now has extra 2024 yearbooks available for purchase if you meant to buy yours last spring but that deadline got away from you. See Mrs. Phillips in 2213 if you're interested in buying one. They are $70 and can be purchased via checks made out to OOHS yearbook.
Yearbook - Senior Ads
Senior parents - Celebrate your child's graduation by purchasing a senior ad in the 2025 yearbook. You can submit a baby photo, senior photo and a heartfelt message that commemorates your senior's time in school. The senior ad order form and size sheet are available on the school's website, will be linked to the yearbook social media accounts and will also be passed out in senior English classes. All senior ads will be purchased online! You will go to yearbookforever.com and then search for the high school to buy them. You can purchase the senior ad, upload the necessary message/photos and purchase your senior's yearbook all in the same transaction. Please note: The ads are honored on a first come, first serve basis determined when both payment and artwork are submitted until space is full. Therefore, reserve your space asap. We anticipate selling a lot of ads this year, so ads may be turned off before the deadline is reached. This form provides instructions.
The deadline for submission is Thursday, Feb. 27. Contact Kari Phillips with questions.
