9:30am Picture Group at RHS

The group I specifically talked to yesterday.  Arrive to the back of the school by the tennis courts and go in via the Athletic Entrance (The Gym Hallway).  The pictures will either be taken in the Wrestling Room or one of the gyms.  DO NOT BE LATE.  Wear your Uniform and bring your spikes if you want to wear them in the picture (around your neck) or holding them. 

This banner will be on display in the building throughout the year.  Coach Lewis wanted to recognize the sports teams with a team banner!  I hope to move this banner into my classroom at the end of the year.

If you want a banner, you may ask the photographer the cost and work that out with her.  I have no idea if she will make additional copies.  Simply ask!  

You will take individual photos, but it will appear as she staged you as a team in one photo!
