Picture retakes will be TOMORROW, November 7th, 2024 first thing in the morning in the elementary cafeteria. If your child was absent on the original picture day, they will get their picture taken tomorrow.
Message from Lee’s Photography: There is a $5.00 charge to help offset printing expenses. Original pictures must be returned to the photographer on retake day. We will not reorder your package if the original photos are not returned. If your eyes are closed, we will re-photograph your student at no charge.
This letter will be coming home tonight about Santa's workshop.
