Does NARA have high school yearbooks?

I discovered the name and hometown of a sailor who died while aboard a U.S. spy ship in 1966, and I want to see his high school photo and if it talks about him joining the Navy, etc. Does NARA have access to high school yearbooks and will NARA send high-rez scans?

Dear Mr. Streifer,

Thank you for contacting History Hub. The National Archives does not have custody of school yearbooks. We would suggest contacting the school directly. If the school no longer exists, the local libraries for its municipality would be a good source to contact.

Best of luck in your endeavor.

  I've since found his death notice (with photo) in the "local" paper, so I no longer need his high school yearbook. By the way, I obtained the press report from his family who is very suspicious of the events surrounding the death of her son/brother.
