Update #5: WE DID IT!!!
We made our goal with days to spare! Thank you for all of your support, shares, and friendship! I am so proud of this effort and you should all be so proud of yourselves for helping such an honorable cause!
Thanks again!!!
Update #4: Wow, your generosity floors me!
With only 7 days left, we are less than $400 short of our goal and I know we can push through until the end! This amazes me. Your generosity is unbelievable. Parents of students, my principal, fellow teachers, teachers at other schools, old friends, new friends, and complete strangers have committed to backing this worthy project. I know the holidays are a tough time to ask for money, but you have all come through for us. Thank you, you should all be proud of yourself for helping us reach our goal.
I received a message from a student the other day and she has been checking the Kickstarter daily over winter break! She says she is so excited, and I am right there with her.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart, and keep sharing so we can reach that $4,000 goal with time to spare.

Update #1: We're on our way, but need you!
Hi! Thanks so much to those of you that have backed the Pinnacle Charter Middle School Yearbook so far. We are an eighth of the way to our goal and are thrilled. In fact someone who has learned about our project has committed to buying us three new point-and-shoot cameras, which will really help the students that don't have their own cameras to use.
With 31 days left to reach our goal of $4,000, we need you and your friends more than ever! Please share this project with everyone you know and help us reach our goal!
Thanks,
JJ and the Pinnacle Charter Middle School Yearbook Staff

Connected as JJ Ogrin Pinnacle (266 friends)
We’re a group of 32 sixth through eighth grade students at the Pinnacle Charter School in Federal Heights, CO, advised by Mrs. J.J. Babb Ogrin. We come from a wide range of backgrounds and demographically represent Pinnacle’s diverse student body. Our teacher, Mrs. Ogrin, was a journalist, but decided 2 years ago teaching was a much better career for her. She loves working with us and especially loves teaching journalism and design as we create the first ever Pinnacle Charter Middle School (ONLY!!) Yearbook.
That's wonderful - congrats to you all! I know it will be a wonderful yearbook - you have some great kids to work with! :) - Mrs. Kellerman
