Los anuarios ya están disponibles para su compra a un precio de $7 cada uno. En años anteriores, la Hamlin Middle School de Springfield, Oregón, tuvo la fortuna de poder entregar los anuarios a los estudiantes sin costo alguno; sin embargo, debido a la congelación presupuestaria de mitad de año, la escuela no puede cubrir dicho gasto en esta ocasión. Nuestro deseo es que todo estudiante que desee un anuario pueda tener acceso a uno; por ello, si su familia está dispuesta y tiene la posibilidad de patrocinar uno o más anuarios adicionales para otro estudiante, agradeceríamos enormemente su generosidad. Puede adquirir un anuario a través del siguiente enlace:
