The Scoop:

Baby Picture

Casual Picture

Senior Quote

Mrs. Coward needs your help to make the yearbook one to remember. Please send a baby photo, a casual photo, and your senior quote to yearbook@eastwakeacademy.org no later than Sunday, September 17. All seniors who meet the deadline will earn one dropped quiz grade for English IV (regardless of semester).

Send a photo of you as an infant or toddler, preferably by yourself.

Send a casual photo of yourself from the past year. This photo should be of ONLY you, and should not be from a distance.

Choose a quotation that represents you as a mature, high school senior. Do not choose inside jokes or quotations with inappropriate verbiage. Your quotation may be denied.
