There will be an opportunity for Spring Pictures. Those students who were not present for pictures in October and November will get theirs taken. Students who already received their fall pictures can have the opportunity to take their pictures again. Please contact the office if you would like spring pictures as we will be keeping a list. Only those that we know want the pictures will get it taken. Please either call the office or message Meghan Thomson or Janice Johnston in the Rooms app if you would like your child to participate in Spring Pictures.

Volunteers will contact each building directly and you can schedule them from there. More information, including a list of volunteers and any preferences (seated work only etc.), can be found in this folder: 2025 COA Tax Abatement Volunteers
