We ask for everyone’s patience during this process. Please remember that this is NOT a time to socialize.

To make this process run smoothly please adhere to the following guidelines:
iPads: must be placed in a sealed Ziploc bag with the student’s name and homeroom written on the outside. Charging cord and plug MUST also be included in this bag. Any students missing a charging cord/plug will be charged $50.

YEARBOOK PHOTO REQUEST

Dear Families—
 
We can’t believe the school year is almost over, and what a school year it has been!
 
We are going to try to make this year’s yearbook as special as possible.  We are asking for any photos you may have of your children in school or school events (team events, after school activities, Lil’Angels, talent show, school play, classroom celebration, etc).
 
We are also looking for photos of students sharing their schoolwork from home!  Photos of parents working with their children, photos from online classes, photos of children working on their own, everything!  This can be from any subject and all grade levels. 
 
The support of parents during this time has been so critical to the success of the school year.  One day we will all look back at this and be reminded of the shared experience the yearbook can offer.
 
PHOTOS MUST BE SUBMITTED BY JUNE 7th.

All photos can be emailed to:  ap@stb-school.org
Please put YEARBOOK PHOTOS in the subject line
 
Please do not crop any photos as that may make the photo unusable in the yearbook.  We can crop/edit pictures in the yearbook software.
 
Also, please identify the classroom/activity/grade the pictures are from. 
 
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact Patty Dems at ptdems@gmail.com or 713.412.8606.
 
Thank you,
 
Mrs. Julianne Morrin
Assistant Principal
