A Note For GRB Seniors About Today’s Portrait Retakes
From Len Senecal at G. Ray Bodley High School:
“Due to the current construction at G. Ray Bodley High School, the location for Thursday’s Senior Picture retakes for the 2010 Fultonian Yearbook has changed. Students are asked to enter through the temporary main entrance in the teacher’s parking lot and pictures will take place in room 132 rather than the auditorium. Room 132 is right around the corner from the entrance, which will make it easier for everyone involved.
The photographers will be at GRB from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Thurs. Aug. 27. There is no charge for students who did not have their portrait taken in June, but there is a $10 retake fee which will be collected at the time of the pictures.”
