Attention Acorn Seniors Class of 2021~
Tomorrow (8-14-2020) is Senior Picture Day!! There is a change in where these will take place due to a scheduling conflict. We will now be in the Safe Shelter for pictures. Most have confirmed their time slot, but we have a few that haven’t! If you know you haven’t confirmed your time, please call 501-664-5550 or you can go to www.prestigeportraits.com and chat with a representative. I have been asked about a retake day, but it may be awhile before we can get one of those scheduled. I’m looking forward to seeing you tomorrow!
