SENIORS
Clarification to letter sent to senior parents this week:
The senior-class officers are requesting photos of seniors at ANY AGE. You may include both group AND individual photos.
Due to the pandemic, however, please do not submit group pictures from the past 12 months unless they meet the following criteria: pics from school-sponsored activities where participants are masked and/or socially distanced; pics from school-sponsored activities that do not require masks or distancing (actively engaged in sports); or pics of individuals.
This would not apply to pre-pandemic photos. The senior class is especially interested in groups of seniors pre-Covid , as young children and through their four years of high school.
We have been limited in our activities, and have had to limit attendees at the events we have had. For some events, school photographers have not been able to attend. Therefore, we have limited pictures from which to choose.
If you have photos from some of those school events with your student in them, we would encourage you to submit those, too.
This video is intended to be a reflection of the class of 2021. Thank you for your help!
