Yearbook

8th Grade & 9th Grade Baby Picture Option for Yearbook:

Dear 8th & 9th Grade Parents:

The Tamanend Middle School yearbook advisors have opened a website to upload 8th & 9th grade baby pictures for the 2025-2026 yearbook. We are inviting you to include a photo memento in your child’s yearbook that he or she will have as a special reminder in their last year at Tamanend. There is unfortunately not room for personal family messages to be included in the yearbook, but this ‘Tiger Tots’ section is a nice way to give our 8th graders & Freshman the extra spotlight they deserve in their final Tamanend yearbook! If you are interested, the cost is $5.25. If you would like to participate in this optional addition, please make sure that you follow the steps below.

Please know that yearbooks are not free to 8th or 9th graders. If your child would like a yearbook in June, one must be ordered on Jostens.com.

**We are not able to accept actual printed photos that need to be uploaded. All uploading must be done on your own to the site mentioned below. Please only upload one (1) picture per child.

PLEASE MARK YOUR CALENDARS: SUBMISSIONS ARE DUE BY FRIDAY JANUARY 9, 2026:

Picture Uploading Directions:

1) In order to upload a photo, you will need to use a Gmail account (@gmail.com). If you do not have one, you can create one for free. You’ll be uploading the baby photo into a Goggle Form.

2) Please visit the following link:

 

a. 9th Grade: https://forms.gle/iXbkXvt1fy2XsttbA

 

b. 8th Grade: https://forms.gle/w1Bh7s8UCSjCe1mBA

 

3) For question #1 in the survey, make sure you type the STUDENT’S FIRST and LAST NAME as you would like it to appear under baby picture in yearbook.

4) For question #2 in the Google form, you will put your (parent/guardian) email address. We will contact you if there are any issues with the quality or size of the picture you uploaded.

5) **Be sure to SAVE THE PICTURE AS YOUR CHILD’S FIRST AND LAST NAME prior to uploading the picture into the Google Form!

(We will unfortunately have to delete any baby pictures not saved correctly with a first and last name, as we do not want to mislabel a student’s picture in the yearbook with a wrong name)

6) Upload your picture and click submit.

Payment Directions:

Please log into your My Payments Plus account to make the $5.25 payment electronically. We will use the list of students that have submitted their payment on My Payments Plus as our list of students that will have baby pictures included in the yearbook. Uploaded pictures will not automatically be included, until payment verification comes through My Payments Plus.

If you are not able to make a payment online, please reach out to kbrumbaugh@cbsd.org to make other payment arrangements.

If you have any questions or troubles with the photo upload, please feel free to contact our yearbook advisor.

Mrs. Kerri Brumbaugh

Tamanend Yearbook Advisor
