SPRING PORTRAITS

Harrington House is coming to campus on TOMORROW -- Tuesday, April 12th to take spring portraits of students who sign up to do so. Please complete the below form and submit no later than today -- Monday, April 11th at noon.

Photos will start at 8:00 a.m. (students not present when they are called from class will lose their spot). If you do not complete the form below, your student(s) will not be photographed that day.

Please refer to the list below and send the designated snack or drink to school with your child. PLEASE SEND THE REQUESTED DRINK SIZE.
