Reminder of Picture Retake Day:
Picture Retake Day will be Monday, November 23rd. Remote and Distance Learning students will have their pictures taken between noon and 2:45.  Pictures will be taken at McKelvie in Room 17.   A parent/guardian may walk their child to the Main Office (Fully Remote and Distance Learning students) and students will then proceed down to room 17.  In-person students (A-K) will have their pictures taken during the school day.  Please see THIS FLYER from Geskus, with instructions on how you can pre-order student photos if your child did not have pictures taken earlier or if you need a retake.
