On Friday, March 16th, students will have Spring pictures taken. These pictures are not your ordinary school photos. Students will be allowed to make their own pose and use appropriate props (sunglasses, jewelry, hats,etc). School administration reserves the right to control poses and props. No hand signs, inappropriate clothing or vulgarity will be allowed. This is a proof program. All students are photographed and then after about 2 weeks, a proof is sent home with a price list and directions for ordering.
