    • If you purchased and received a JCHS yearbook last school year (the white book titled "the only thing constant in life is change"), then you need to make sure you get your supplemental insert. These are additional pages that have photos and stories about spring sports, Mr JC, prom and graduation. These pages can be secured into the back of your yearbook. There is NO additional charge for these pages -- they essentially complete the book to make it a full history of the school year. We have been distributing these at lunch. However, if you have not yet received your supplement pages, PLEASE come pick them up before or after school in JCHS room 213, which is right by the library.
