Missed picture day? 📸 Don’t worry—Picture Retake Day is October 3, 2025!

Important Reminders:

• No hats, sunglasses, or costuming are allowed in pictures.

• Clothing and attire must follow the Nebo District Dress Code (this includes no spaghetti strap or strapless tops).

• Student pictures are used for safety and identification purposes-it's important that students are clearly identifiable.

• We encourage students to wear their "best dress," especially seniors, since these photos will appear on their official transcript, which is sent to colleges and universities.

All students must have their picture taken in order to receive a student ID card and be included in the yearbook, even if they are not purchasing a picture packet.
