Dear Families and Caregivers:

School picture retake day will be on 11/17/2025!

*Retake day is for new students and staff members, transfer students, or for anyone who may have missed the initial picture day. Additionally, we welcome anyone who was unhappy with their original picture and would like to give it another try. Retake photos automatically replace original photos in school services and yearbook. If a student chooses to retake their photo, please have them return the original picture package to the photographer on picture day. We will replace it at no additional cost.

If this is the first time being photographed, just have the student/staff go to the camera and we’ll create a proof for them that will be sent to the school (and/or to their family email if we have that information). These proofs will be delivered approx. 4 weeks after picture day. An order code will be on the proof along with ordering instructions.

World Teachers’ Day, which celebrates teachers for their dedication to students, is recognized on Oct. 5 but we are recognizing it today, October 6.

Teachers play a pivotal role in our communities. Through their support, encouragement, and understanding, they help shape the next generation of students and community members.

Thank you to our teachers for going above and beyond! #thankateachertoday #WorldTeacherDay
