School Picture Day October 9
For the purpose of school file photos, every student will be photographed on school picture day. A variety of photo packages are also available for purchase from the school's photographer, Lifetouch. Packages can be pre-ordered online by visiting mylifetouch.com. On Picture Day, children must bring the confirmation page with the picture ID number (which is generated after placing an online order). The photographer will ask your child for that number. Order envelopes must be returned to school on Picture Day. Retake Day is scheduled on Tuesday, November 17.
