8th Grade Yearbook Dedication Page – Due Friday, March 15th
8th Grade Picture – Thursday, March 28th
We would love to get a class picture, different from the school picture, of all of the 8th grade students together. Van Gogh School Photographers will be here to take individual pictures of students in their white shirt and jeans with a graduation cap in different poses, along with 8th grade group picture. You will have the option to view and pay for your individual photos online. A flyer will be sent home within 10 working days after the picture day with your child. You will get a copy of the class picture end of school year.
8th Grade Slide Show Picture – Due April 12th
We are putting together a special slideshow for our 8th grade students which will play during the celebration. We would love to have 2 pictures: a baby picture and a more recent picture of your student to add to the presentation. This is completely optional, but it has been a big hit in past graduation celebrations. Please email pictures to Tammie Waddell DUE NO LATER THAN APRIL 12th. Please put Slide Slow picture in the subject line.

This is an exciting opportunity for them to spend time together. The students will have the chance to celebrate the culmination of their 8th grade year by having fun and bonding; as well as working on communicating and problem-solving skills.
