Order yearbooks by November 30th! Yearbooks are $28 and a portion of the sales will go towards purchasing yearbooks for students who need assistance, teachers and staff. If you are unable to purchase a book and want one, please contact our school counselor, Jasmine Peterson.
4th Grade Parents Only:Each year, we feature a special 4th-grade section with congratulatory messages from families. Each message includes a 2–3 sentence note for the student, along with one digital photo—either their kindergarten photo or another of your choice. If your child was a kindergartner at Reed and you would like to use the school photo, please email us to let us know we need to pull that photo from Wagner.
The message will be submitted when you place a yearbook order. Photos should be emailed to the Yearbook committee. Please include the child’s name in the subject line.
