Class of 2021 Senior Portraits
Seniors and their families will be contacted directly by our photographer, Lifetouch, to schedule appointments for senior portraits.
Pictures will be taken in the Dominion High School auditorium beginning on
Friday, July 24 through Thursday, July 30 by appointment only.
From Lifetouch: In order to keep our seniors safe, Lifetouch
photographers have completed training to offer
'No-Touch' posing.
Social distancing will be implemented, and photographers will not make any physical contact with customers, subjects and other employees. Lifetouch staff must maintain a 6ft distance from subjects, customers and employees.
Additionally, photographers will be wearing masks. Photographers have been equipped with personal protective equipment (PPE) and sanitization products to properly clean and disinfect equipment after each session.
Garments such as Tuxedo/Drape and Cap & Gown will be steamed after each and every use. Photographers must complete checklists before, during and after each session to reinforce our commitment to
ensuring a safe and positive photography session

Titan Theatre Launches a
Fundraising Effort
Titan Theatre Group encompasses all stage activities at Dominion High School.
COVID-19 hit Titan Theatre in a devastating way. One week before opening night, school was cancelled. Titan Theatre's Singin' in The Rain was going to be Titan Thespian Society's best show yet, scheduled to open on March 19, 2020.
They should have been singing their way through a rain stage, tap dancing while twirling umbrellas, and showcasing the amazing talent of our Titan's. Yes, like the rest of the world, their plans were put on hold. That didn't stop them though. They pulled together, started tap dancing in their garages, singing on the decks, all while learning how to video record clips and salvage what they could, because the show must go on. You can watch this digital performance at
dominionhigh.com
The group has all of the costs of the production but did not benefit from the revenue of ticket sales, concessions, and most importantly the applause of their adored fans.
We are looking to provide some financial relief so that Titan Theatre will go on for 2020-2021 school year. If you would like to help sponsor Titan Theatre you can find out more information and donate at
