Senior Portraits

This week Senior Pictures will be taken by Jostens on August 8. 

Josten's will provide a Tuxedo jacket or velvet drape. 

Everyone must have their picture taken by Josten's for their ID Badge, but you do not have to do the Tux or Drape.

For the yearbook, Jostens will send us your photo. If you would like to add a second informal photo or use photos from another vendor, please submit them HERE by November 7.

If you have any questions, please reach out to me, betsy.miller@psaschool.org

Thank you!

Join "The PSA Beautification Project" and help transform our school's grounds! We're looking for enthusiastic volunteers to refresh the flower beds, ensuring a vibrant and welcoming environment for our children. This project focuses on essential gardening tasks: mulching to suppress weeds and retain moisture, weeding to clear existing beds, and planting new flowers to add color and life. Your involvement, even for a few hours, makes a significant impact, creating a beautiful space where our students can learn and thrive.

SIGN UP to volunteer!
