i am trying to find the yearbook for the year 1995

Mostly Middle Easterns here which I'm very happy about cause I fit in very well, the staff are so kind as well especially Mrs. Foreman and Mrs. Wiacek honestly. The school is better than I first thought it would be when I first came in sixth grade, there's a bunch of activities and the cafeteria is super clean until the students arrive, lovely school.
