March 5 is a special Picture Day:

• Kindergartners will take their cap & gown photos for diplomas. We recommend students not wear hoodies underneath the cap and gown as it may impact how the gown fits for the picture.

• 8th Graders who need a make up or missed prior Picture Days can take a photo on this day as well. This photo will be used on their diplomas.
