Reminder: Underclassman Picture Day is tomorrow, Tuesday, August 18th! Please make sure 9th-11th-grade students come prepared to have their photos taken.
Each year, we ask families to complete school forms, and now is a great time to do so. All forms are completed online through the Infinite Campus Parent Portal—no more paper, and only one submission per household, even if you have multiple students.
These forms are required for every student and help us:
✅ Continue offering free breakfast and lunch to all students
✅ Provide access to school health services
✅ Make sure your child is included in the yearbook and other school events
✅ Support the programs and services that benefit every student
Thanks for helping us get the year off to a strong start.

Please see the information below from Barksdale School Portraits about Makeup Picture Day on October 16th
What to expect on makeup picture day:
1.) Any student wishing to have a retake should bring their original picture package to exchange for the retake image.
2.) When an order is placed online, the parent/guardian will receive a camera pass via email. This can either be printed or texted to the student and brought to picture day. The photographer will photograph the printed camera pass along with the student.
3.) If a student is not able to print their camera pass, that is not a problem. We will match up the student to their order manually in the production process.
4.) A parent may order from the flyer up until 24 hours after picture day. After 24 hours, the online ordering access may close. This will allow our imaging team to "Pull" all orders submitted and match them with the students photographed.
5.) When pictures are returned to school, all students that purchased pictures will receive their prepaid package. Any student that was photographed but did not order a package, will receive a "Proof" (PX) of their picture that was taken on picture day.
All proof packages offer parents a second opportunity to order prints. All orders are subject to shipping and handling costs of up to $8.50 and will be shipped directly to home.
Please contact The Barksdale Group directly with questions at 1-800-220-7667.
