➤ School pictures are here!
Photos have arrived! They are on the round table in the office.
The deadline for ordering prints has passed, but you can still buy the digital files of your child’s portrait and have your own prints made. The digital file package costs $20 flat and that includes any alternate photos that were taken. Email Emma at erobbins@villagecharterschool.com with your child’s name, and pay via Venmo or PayPal. You’ll receive the files by the next school day after payment has been received.

3 They will give you a card with a barcode and two key chain barcodes to use each time you shop
4 Shop — eScrip automatically donates a percentage to our school!
