NAMS School Picture Day

We scheduled 2 NAMS Picture Days:

  • Tuesday, September 29th from 9:00-2:00 & 3:00-5:00

  • Thursday, October 1st from 9:00-2:00 & 3:00-5:00

Logistics:

  • There will be 3 cameras set up outside in front of the building under tents. 

  • The photographers already have all of our students’ information so all that our students need to do is to share their name with the photographer.

  • In speaking with our school photographer, I learned that it will take about 2 minutes per student.

  • Once pictures are ready, families will receive via email a unique key code to order their child’s picture.

 

Providing OLA Students with School Materials and Supplies

  • We have ordered sturdy bags for all of our OLA students. We will be labelling the bags with students’ names and the bags will be available for pick up in front of NAMS between 3:00-5:00 p.m. on Tuesday, September 29th and Thursday, October 1st.
