Yearbook/Senior Portrait Info:
The Chaparral Yearbook will be on sale during the ID process. The cost is $65.00. After winter break it will be $75.00. It will be $85.00 for students who buy after May 1st. If you do not purchase a yearbook at registration, you will have to bring your check, made out to Chaparral HS, to the bookstore to buy a yearbook. Be sure to purchase early as we cannot guarantee availability in May of 2008 unless the book is purchased before January of 2008.
Senior portraits for the yearbook MUST be taken at Cameo Studios at 7000 E. Shea (480-483-6700) by September 27. There is no charge for the sitting. Students MAY opt to use Cameo for their senior portrait but are under no obligation to do so. You may select any photographer you wish for your senior portrait package, but we must have the Cameo photo for the yearbook so that we will have a consistent senior portrait section. NO OTHER SENIOR PORTRAIT will be accepted for the yearbook other than Cameo's. If you have not heard from Cameo Studios by the end of July, please call them to set up an appointment.

Parking Permit Info
Students who were previously approved to purchase parking permits must complete the registration process before the permit will be issued. Students will present their 2008-09 ID and a parking confirmation sheet to security who will place your parking permit directly on your car. Please remove your old permit before having the new one affixed. Contact Mr. Ross at 484-6508 if you have any questions.
Construction: Final Phase
The final phase of construction will end in November of this year. Unfortunately, the final phase will affect parking for the first quarter. Only seniors who were selected in the parking lottery will be provided a parking permit for the first quarter. We will keep you updated when school starts as to the progress in the south lot.
