Yearbooks are on sale until Monday, December 15th, 2008.
The price for a yearbook is $28, the memories captured are priceless!
Please make your check out to MPE PTA and send it in an envelope with the following information written on the envelope.
*Yearbook Sale
*Child's Name
*Teacher's Name
*Number of Yearbooks purchased
In order to put pictures in the yearbook, we need your help!
Please take the time to read the following information explaining how photographs need to be forwarded to us.
Pictures need to be taken at medium or high resolution (at least 300 dpi).
*First and foremost we want pictures of the kids in groups,singles,pairs,functions, etc. and we need to see their faces. We can use all school activities, inside or outside, day or night.
* Please give the photographs a Title with grade level, teacher, and activity. Example: 4wickerSEM. This tells us 4th grade, Ms. Wicker, SEM and will help us place the pictures in the yearbook correctly. The pictures can be of a grade level activity or mixed grade levels. You can group pictures in a titled folder if sending on a cd or flash drive. For example: Science on a Cart second grade. If you choose to upload on StudioWorks, then the pictures need to be individually labeled.
* Please edit your pictures for:
**Size-no larger than 5MB
**Lighting, focus
**Subject matter
We will only be able to accept "edited" pictures via Flash Drive, CD or by uploading to StudioWorks.
