Picture Day is THURSDAY & we need parent volunteers!
Parents, picture day is approaching (Thursday September 26th) and the yearbook is in desperate need of parent volunteers. The job is easy; line students up and make sure they have the proper forms. All that is needed is for a group of parents to work a two-hour shift on September 26th. The shifts are from 9-11; 11-1, and 1-3. You main contact would be with Peachtree Portraits in assistance of their photographers. There would also be a teacher representative from the yearbook to help with issues. In order to reserve a shift contact Mr. Ted Ward at [email protected].ga.us. Thank you for your continued contribution to Peachtree Charter Middle School.
