Group portraits need to be purchased in "ADVANCE." Please return the form that came home with your payment by portrait day. Lamination is available if you'd like to have your child's portrait sealed and protected in a transparent, plastic coating.
Individual Portraits - In addition to your child being photographed in their class group, your child will be photographed individually. A PROOF of your child will be sent home within a couple of weeks for your approval. Orders for individual portraits will be accepted at that time. You will be able to choose from 9 different backgrounds.
PLEASE DO NOT WEAR GREEN ON PORTRAIT DAY!!!
Mrs. Bertollini and Ms. Boyd coordinated an arts integration project that kicked off on Thursday, January 26th. During the school day, and that night, the Wood and Strings Puppet Theatre from Centerville, Tennessee performed the African folk tale, Ananse, Early In the Day for students and parents. It was enjoyed by all!!!
Please send in new colored pencils (no crayons- they melt!), coloring books with no religious affiliation, or small trinkets. We will collect these items through Wednesday, February 1st. They will be mailed the following week and should reach Mr. Smith within four to six weeks. What a great way for our children to reach around the world and help others!!!
