Lake Forest High School will hand out Class of 2026 yearbooks on Wednesday, August 12, and Thursday, August 13, from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. both days. Graduates and their families have those two days to pick up their copies before the window closes.

The pickup location is the Metcalf Foyer, situated between the Fieldhouse and the Competition Gym. To reach the foyer, the district's announcement directs everyone to enter through the back of the school.

The announcement, posted on the Lake Forest Schools District 115 website on Tuesday, July 28, does not address what happens if graduates miss the two-day window.

Calendar context

The two-day pickup falls about two weeks before the 2026–2027 school year begins. The first day of school for returning students is Thursday, August 27, according to the district's published back-to-school calendar. Graduates who have already left town for college may want to coordinate with family members before the August 12 start date.

The district has not posted a contact number specific to yearbook distribution. Families with questions can reach the LFHS main office at the school.
