Submit Photos for the Yearbook!
Hello! Thank you for your interest in contributing to the 2020-2021 McAuliffe Middle School Yearbook! Please click on any links that you or your children are interested in sending us pictures for and fill out as much of the form as you’d like. 

If you only have pictures to submit for a certain part that’s okay! We’d love to see anything you have to offer and to include as many students as possible in this year’s Yearbook! 
Join the "Among Us" Club!
The club meets on Wednesdays from 1:00-2:00 via Zoom (link in GC). We're going to limit it to just middle school students. This is a chance to connect with all middle schoolers (LosAl@Home, McAuliffe, and Oak!) This club puts a smile on faces, encourages students to talk to each other, and allows students to meet new people. Thanks for your continued support!
YOU'LL ALWAYS WANT TO REMEMBER THIS YEAR! ORDER YOUR YEARBOOK NOW!
