SUPPORTING YEARBOOK:

Please read this message from our Yearbook committee:

As the school year comes to a close we are going through all of the many fond memories we have made here at UCA. We are finalizing our 2023-2024 yearbook and would like to extend an invitation to you to advertise your business in our Yearbook.

We want to help lower the cost of the yearbook for our students so your support will be greatly appreciated.

We are offering local businesses the opportunity to advertise in the yearbook and to join our UCA families in celebration of their year of hard work and dedication. This is also a great way to target South Holland and surrounding customers for your business!

Compared to a newspaper ad which is in someone’s house for maybe a week, a yearbook is something folks look at over an extended period of time.

Details:

  • Full Page Advertisement-$100 Black and White or $200 color

  • ½ Page Advertisement-$50 Black and White or $100 color

  • To reserve your space contact Rachael Fedor via email at rfedor@weareuca.org.

  • Deadline to turn in an advertisement is April 24, 2024.

We know times are challenging and we do appreciate your support.

Exciting opportunities:

  • Three FREE Weeklong STEM Programs

    • The Exelon Foundation STEM Academy (for young women) will take place at the University of Illinois, Chicago, July 7-12, 2024.

    • The Exelon Foundation Boys to STEM Academy (for young men) will take place at the University of Maryland, College Park, July 28 – August 2, 2024. Young men participating in the program from Chicago will fly with a NEED staff member to Maryland.

    • The Constellation Youth Energy Summit at University of Maryland, Baltimore County for both girls and boys, July 14 – 19, 2024. Participants in the Youth Energy Summit will fly to Maryland and shuttled from BWI to the university. Applicants should be comfortable flying unaccompanied.

      Participates will live on campus for the week, visit energy related sites, network with people working in STEM, engineering, and energy, work together on a weeklong challenge and build their own network of likeminded young people.
