If you have an email address, please notify me at dwcreech@pixeltoad.com, so that in the future I can notify you via email when the magazine is posted, and so we can save the school some money on postage, printing costs, etc.

Parents of Seniors...

 

We started our annual “Spotlighting” series of our Seniors in this month’s issue, and will continue up to graduation.

 

Seniors will be spotlighted in the order they are received, so get yours in early!

 

The following information is recommended for the Spotlights:

 

· Favorite pictures: please include at least one baby picture, if possible.

· A personal statement from your Senior—something like... “I have enjoyed the past four years...” yada yada. This statement should include personal goals and ambitions for the future.

· A letter from YOU to your Senior. You can include comments to the staff as well.

 

You can get this information to me in one of two ways. (1) If you have it all on digits, you can email it to me at dwcreech@pixeltoad.com. (2) Otherwise, have your Senior drop this information off with Mr. Meers or Mr. Aymett, and I will get it from them. If you need something scanned, make sure it is in an envelope with a name on it, and I will get it back to you by reversing the process.

 

I am not going to spend time tracking down this information. If it doesn’t get turned in, your Senior won’t get published.

 

If you have any questions, feel free to email me.
