The time to preorder a yearbook for $50 has passed, but that doesn't mean you can't still reserve a copy of this year's annual. Starting March 31, yearbooks may be purchased in the General Office for $60. We have 100 books on the reserved list, and they are on a first-come, first-served basis. Prepaying for the book now guarantees you a yearbook in May. Act quickly, you do not want to miss out on this great opportunity!

Seniors - May 30, 2026, will be here before you know it! Seniors and families, to ensure you have all the information you need regarding graduation, please visit our Senior Information 2026 page on the uths.net website.
