GHS School Pictures & Retake Info
-
Everyone who posed on School Picture Day will receive a picture package that a parent / guardian ordered or a proof sheet with information about ordering in English class tomorrow. Any student who does not have an English class will receive the package delivered to one of his/her classes tomorrow.

Any student who was not here on School Picture day in August will pose during Retake Day on Oct. 11, regardless of whether parents want to order picture packages. These photos are used for administrative purposes. If parents want to order photos, though, they can use this form: img-805071529-0001-Copy.pdf_page_1.jpg (Disregard the date. Retakes are the same price so you can use the original Picture Day form.)

Students who do not like their picture packages can pose for Retakes on Oct. 11 during English class. They must return their entire picture package to pose for Retakes. They do not need to complete new forms for their replacement photo packages.

Students who do not like their proofs do NOT have the option to pose for retakes unless they want to order picture packages. They can use the attached order form or pick up an order form in the main office. Use this form: img-805071529-0001-Copy.pdf_page_1.jpg (Disregard the date. Retakes are the same price so you can use the original Picture Day form.)

Seniors can order these photos for personal use, but the special photos taken during the summer and in August will be the ones used in the yearbook. use this form: img-805071529-0001-Copy.pdf_page_1.jpg (Disregard the date. Retakes are the same price so you can use the original Picture Day form.)
Student Drop Off/Pick Up Route
We ask our students to get picked up/dropped off on the east side (red arrow). Please follow the route listed below both in the morning and in the afternoon. This route will help ensure safety and improve the traffic flow without creating congestion at the "T" in front of the school. We recognize how busy all of you are, but this route below will help the traffic flow and help create a safe parking lot environment for all.

Class of 2020 - Senior Picture Information
The 2018-2019 school year is drawing to a close, and I'm sure you cannot believe your child will soon be a senior. One item that needs to be on your To Do list right now is your child's senior picture.
If this is your first GHS senior, you probably have no idea how senior pictures work. Basically, you can go anywhere to get your child's senior pictures taken for photos you distribute to friends and family, BUT, your child must pose for his/her yearbook senior picture through Prestige Portraits this summer. You cannot provide a photo taken by somebody else for the yearbook because of specific digital imaging required for yearbook printing.
To make senior pictures easy for you and your family, Prestige will set up a full studio at GHS in the library this summer with lots of background choices and props on June 12 and June 13. You will receive proofs from Prestige so you can choose your yearbook photo and purchase photos if you'd like for family and friends. There is no obligation to buy photos, though.
Prestige Portraits will send you a postcard within the next few weeks that gives you a specific date and time for the senior picture. All appointments will take place on June 12 and June 13 from 8 a.m. - 3 p.m. If you have a conflict with the date and time assigned, you will contact Prestige to change your appointment using information on that postcard. Prestige can set up full appointments at their studio on the north side of Indianapolis throughout the summer, too, if you'd rather drive to the studio. The key is that you get those photos taken before school starts.
I'm providing you with this information in April so you can keep these dates -- June 12 and June 13 -- free on your calendars.
If you have questions for Prestige about your appointments or senior pictures in general, you can contact Christine Williams at 317/829.2073 Continue reading

GHS School Picture Retakes Sept. 25.
Tomorrow is School Picture Retake Day, and students who need to pose for retakes will do so during their English classes. All students who were absent on Aug. 8 when everyone went to the gym to pose for school pictures must pose next Tuesday for administrative reasons – even if they do not want to buy school pictures. This includes all seniors who were absent on the school-wide picture day; this picture is for their school IDs and transcripts. Students who purchased picture packages but did not like their pictures should pose, and they must return their original picture packages to the photographer at that time. Picture packages do not include the proof sheets all non-purchasers received. Extra order forms for school pictures are available in the front office and have been emailed to all parents.
Use the attached order form even though it is dated Aug. 8. Prices have not changed. Continue reading
