2019-2020 Yearbook Pick Up

Message from Jenks Elementary PTA

YEARBOOKS ARE HERE! Please read this in its entirety, so that delivery process goes a smoothy as possible.

First, thank you for all your patience as we navigate this crazy time and try to make a plan to distribute yearbooks.

This email for parents that PRE-ORDERED a yearbook between July and March through the Balfour website.

IN ORDER TO PICK UP YOUR YEARBOOK, YOU MUST PROVIDE…

1. YOUR PRINTED RECEIPT(S) WITH YOUR CHILD(REN)’S FIRST/LAST NAME CLEARLY WRITTEN ON IT.
2. A PIECE OF PAPER ON YOUR DASH WITH YOUR CHILD(REN)’S FIRST/LAST NAME CLEARLY WRITTEN ON IT.

There are two ways to find the receipt for your order: Search for “Balfour” in your e-mail’s inbox, or Log into Balfour.com – go to orders.

Again, you must have the receipt printed in order to receive your yearbook. Please print your child(ren)’s first and last name on the receipt. We will use the order number to cross-reference the name if needed.

In order to maintain appropriate social distancing, the distribution will be a drive-through process. When you arrive, DO NOT get out of your car and to protect our volunteers, we request the driver wear a MASK. Watch for our volunteer’s directions, pull up, and roll down your window. From there, we will ask for your receipt. A runner will bring the yearbook to your car and we will ask for your signature as proof of receipt. Bring your own pen or pencil please.

Yearbook pickup will be on Monday, July 13 at Jenks Elementary. Follow the normal car rider pickup line. Rainy day backup plan will be through the bus loop area. Distribution for July 13 will be based on student last names.

9:00-10:00 Student’s last name A-H

10:00-11:00 Student’s last name I-Q

11:00-12:00 Student’s last name R-Z

Questions and Answers:

I have moved out of state! How can I get my yearbook? Please email mjeyearbook@gmail.com after the July 13distribution and we can discuss options.

Can I pick up my friend/family/etc child’s yearbook? No. We are only allowing parents to pick their own child(ren)’s yearbook.

I’m out of town that day/I have to work during the day! What can I do? Please email mjeyearbook@gmail.com after the July 13distribution and we can discuss options.

I didn’t buy a yearbook. Will there be extra left for me to buy? Possibly. We usually receive a few printer “overages” that we use to replace books that were damaged through shipping or have minor errors from the printing process (ex: upside down page). We never know exactly how many overages we will receive. After the distribution is complete and we have verified all yearbooks are satisfactory, we will start contacting our waitlist. If you would like to be added to the waitlist please email mjeyearbook@gmail.com with the following information: Parent name, student name, parent phone number, parent email. We do not guarantee a yearbook to families on the waitlist. Yearbooks will be sold for $45. There is NOT a sales date for extra yearbooks yet. We expect it will be in August.

**Please remember that the yearbook is created and distributed by parent volunteers and any mistakes are unintentional. We would also like to thank our volunteers that offered to help with the distribution of yearbooks during this challenging time (and during the heat of July).

Thank you,

Jenks PTA Volunteer Yearbook Committee

MEETING RULES:

· The chair gives the chance to speak to every member who wishes it. Pro and con speakers should be given alternating opportunities to speak, if possible, and all speakers should tactfully be kept to rules of order and to the question.

· Each member has two opportunities to speak to the motion. A member may exercise his or her first opportunity to speak and, then, after every other member has the chance to speak, may speak only once more.

· All statements must be addressed to the chair and not to another member.

· The chair recognizes a member who has not previously spoken to the motion in preference to one who has spoken.

· The chair does not enter into discussion. Should the President wish to debate, the chair must ask the Vice President to preside. He or she does not resume the chair until after the final disposition of the question under discussion. The President may vote when the vote would change the outcome (to make or break a tie) or when the voting is by ballot.

· Debate continues until no one wishes to speak or until someone moves to close debate.

· Members cannot close debate by shouting, “Question.” A member must seek recognition and make the motion properly and requires a 2/3 vote to pass. (“I move the previous question.”)
