Clarification on Herff Jones Yearbook emails
by Dina Ingram 29 Jan '24

29 Jan '24

Good afternoon, This weekend, some class of 2024 seniors and/or their families received an email from Herff Jones, the publisher of the yearbook, offering them opportunity to purchase a yearbook. Through a miscommunication on the part of the company, the appearance was that this email was from Stuyvesant High School. While the email was not from the school, it was legitimate and they obtained those email addresses from sales of yearbook ads. The link in the email is also legitimate. There were no phishing or scam links associated with that email. If you purchased a yearbook through that link; it was a legitimate purchase of a Stuyvesant Class of 2024 yearbook. If you received that email, you will also receive an email from Herff Jones today clarifying this information. There is no February 1 deadline to purchase a yearbook. We will advise you of a deadline soon. We do encourage you to purchase a 2024 yearbook using the link from Herff Jones at https://www.yearbookordercenter.com/?event=general.displayLanding&jobnumber… The cost of the book is $75. If there is financial hardship, please reach out directly to me to discuss.
