Your senior portrait session is an important first step in celebrating your final year of high school, which is why Ridge Point is excited to partner with CADY for senior portraits.

The Athlon yearbook staff will be taking a new approach to senior yearbook photos at RPHS this year. To streamline the photography process and ensure consistency within the yearbook, they will be transitioning to a tux and drape option for the yearbook pose. They understand that this is different from what some families are used to, and they appreciate your flexibility as they implement this new style.

They recommend booking your session this summer at cady.com/schedule. CADY’s calendar fills up fast and weekend spots are always the first to go.

If you are only interested in taking the yearbook photo, please select the Basic session when booking. CADY Studios will provide the tux and drape for the yearbook photo. Please wear a camisole for the drape option and a white t-shirt for the tux. You will not need to bring any additional clothing items with you if you are only taking your yearbook photo.

Please click here for some FAQs that may help to answer any additional questions, but please do not hesitate to reach out to yearbook advisor Hayley Booth for further clarification or assistance.

Unless seniors requested that I send their June ranks and transcripts, all transcripts for college applications will be sent around September 20 when the new transcripts are available. Senior GPAs and ranks will also be recalculated at this time; the revised GPA will be printed on the transcript and the updated rank will be sent to colleges if the senior requested it in SchooLinks.

If your college is asking you for an HCC dual credit or a UT OnRamps transcript, don't do this yet. As they will only use these for transfer credit, not admissions, you won't need to send them (at $30 each for UT and $10 for HCC!) to the college you will be attending until May. Save some $$$ as they won't review them until then anyway. And if you have OnRamps credit and will be attending UT Austin you won't have to send one at all. Save that $30!

RPHS will be hosting the fall college fair on Friday, September 18 during all lunches.

We are expecting more than 40 colleges, trade schools and military branches, and students are encouraged to visit the tables to ask questions about majors, admissions, financial aid and more.

Juniors and seniors, did you know that you have two FREE days to visit colleges each year? Just get a school excuse from the college admissions department (or tour guide) when you visit and turn it in to the attendance office.

Your absence will be coded as a college visit and doesn't count against exemptions or truancy.
