Dear Families,
We are excited to have Village Photography take portraits of your child on Tuesday October 6, 2015. Students are to dress in uniform this day. We will take class pictures in addition to individuals.
Your child's portrait is something that both of you will cherish for years to come so I encourage you to remind them to bring their best expression.
We look forward to a great Picture Day.

Students will be listed by homeroom then alphabetically by last name, first name. The information provided is limited and private. Non-Amana individuals do not have access to the directory.
