🎄❤️We are looking forward to Holiday picture day coming up! I know this is our first time working together on a campaign that includes siblings, so I put together a little outline of how it works to get us all on the same page: 🎄Parents that want sibling photos will need to register online by deadline (We will not be accepting money or cash the day of photos to keep things organized. 🎄Students that are only taking an individual photo do not need to register. We will send home proofs the same way we did for back to school photos. ******** 🎄❤️¡Estamos deseando que llegue el día de las fotos navideñas! Sé que es la primera vez que colaboramos en una campaña que incluye a hermanos, así que he preparado un breve resumen de cómo funciona para que todos estemos en sintonía: 🎄Los padres que quieran fotos de hermanos deberán registrarse en línea antes de la fecha límite (no aceptaremos dinero en efectivo el día de las fotos para mantener todo organizado). 🎄Los alumnos que solo se tomen una foto individual no necesitan registrarse. Enviaremos pruebas a casa de la misma manera que hicimos para las fotos de regreso a clases.
