    Dear 10th - 12th Grade Parents, Letterman jacket informational packets were distributed to students today. [ ... ]

    Dear 10th - 12th Grade Parents,

    Letterman jacket informational packets were distributed to students today. If your student was absent or did not receive one, I have extra packets available in my office.

    Kyle Tally, or another representative from Jostens/Tally Student Services, will return on Tuesday, October 6, in the gym lobby at approximately 8:30 . The representative will be available to assist with sizing, answer questions, and take letterman jacket and patch orders.

    Payment Information

    Payment is expected on October 6. Parents are welcome to attend, or students may bring payment with them.

    Accepted forms of payment include check, card, money order, or exact cash.

    Checks should be made payable to Jostens — NOT Sylva-Bay Academy.

    For students purchasing an athletic letterman jacket, the SBA Booster Club contributes $35 toward the cost of the jacket. Parents are responsible for the remaining jacket cost, as well as all additional patches, embroidery, customizations, and other extras.

    Jackets must be paid in full before they will be ordered and shipped. Payment plans are available; however, the jacket will not be ordered until the balance is paid in full.

    We are ordering ahead of the Christmas rush, so jackets that are paid in full and ordered at this time are expected to arrive before Christmas.

    Before October 6, Please Decide:

    Each jacket includes an Award Letter “S” with one insert on the front.

    • Patches: Which patches you would like and where you would like them placed (graduation year, sports emblems, uniform numbers, bars, etc.). Common placements include the sleeves, back, and Award Letter “S.”

    • Varsity Bars: Bars placed on the “S” represent each year the student has lettered in a varsity sport only.

    • Sleeves: Vinyl or leather.

    • Front Embroidery: Student's full name, first name, last name, etc.

    • Back: Any name, nickname, or other information you would like added, if applicable.

    One unique feature of a Jostens letterman jacket is its removable liner, which makes it easier to add patches and other accomplishments throughout the student's high school years.

    If you have questions about jackets, patches, pricing, or ordering, please contact Tally Student Services at 601-782-9606 before Tuesday.

    Thank you,

    Hope Hull
