To avoid shipping fees pre-orders need to be placed by the day after picture day.
Senior photos will receive a proof-they will not use this code for ordering.
Seniors need to make sure they have all items they would like to use in the picture ready to go prior to their assigned picture time. If you are wanting to include a jersey or an item you currently don't have in your possession, do not wait until picture day to arrange to get those items.

Our students in 1st-6th grade have a goal of reading 100 minutes each week. Reading minutes are tracked by a paper chain. Once students read 1000 minutes, they earn a keychain and a spirit stick. They also are added to the 1000 minutes club. Other incentives are reached at 1000 minute intervals. Congratulations to these individuals who have already read 1000 minutes! #vanfarelementary #wearefamily #readingisfun #1000minuteclub
