to decision must be submitted by November 15, 2010.
Late pictures are defined as any picture turned in after 1:30 pm, November
1, 2010, but will be accepted until 1:30 pm, November 15, 2010 with a
$50.00 late charge. Absolutely no pictures will be accepted after 1:30

Lifetouch picture will be included, if appropriate.

in to Ms. Montre in room #311 - third floor by the circle drive. Please
lightly write your name on the back of each picture and place in a plain
envelope with your name written on the front. Student or parent signature
will be required at time of submission. Do not place pictures under doorway.
Students may choose any photography studio to have their pictures taken.
Local area photographers have been notified of our requirements but it
is the responsibility of the student and/or parent/guardian to make sure
that the pictures submitted meet all of our requirements in order to be
included in the senior portrait section.
Students may appear in the senior section once during their high school
career. Only students on senior status at the start of the first trimester
of the school year may appear in the senior section. Reflector Yearbook
staff members and adviser are not responsible for and will not perform
any photo software corrections or any other corrections on pictures. The
staff and adviser do reserve the right to crop pictures for space and
content.
