Here's the NCMS yearbook staff at work taking pictures, but they are in need of additional cameras. If you now take all of your pictures on your phone and have a point and shoot camera or a DSLR camera that you're not using, please consider donating it to the yearbook class.

American Education Week began in 1921 as a joint venture between the National Education Association and the American Legion as a means to generate public support for education in the wake of World War I. It remains an important occasion for celebrating and recognizing the important role public education plays in our society and to thank our staff for their outstanding work.
