Calling All Picture Takes
The PTA is still putting together a yearbook for the 2020/21 school year! We NEED your help!
We now have a way for parents and teachers to upload pictures for the yearbook. If you already have a Shutterfly account you can log into it or you can create a new one. Go to SESYearbook.Shutterfly.com. Once you get logged on, click “Ask to become a member” in the top right. Be sure to include your students teachers name in the message. Once it has been approved, you will be able to upload pictures from your computer or you can use the app on your phone.
If anyone has pictures of Sandymount students having fun together outside of school or during breaks please add them to the album “After School Fun”.
We are also looking for headshots to include on the class pages. If you do not see an album for your students teacher, you can create one, for example “K-Hopwood”. Be sure to edit the description to include how you would like their name to appear in the yearbook.
If you have any questions or you would just like to email the pictures, please use SESYearbook@gmail.com.
