Band Pictures

We will be taking individual band pictures during class on Wednesday, November 29th. Students will put on their band uniform and take a picture with their instrument. The order form is below and I will also pass out an already printed form in class to all students.

Students need to have their order form already filled out and their payment in hand to give to the TexasGroupPhoto Representative on the day of the pictures.

Order Form

Below is a link to our online order form.  Its very easy, parents do not have to create and account.  Its just like the paper form, but it allows for payment via credit card, debit, Apple pay, and Google pay.  It also provides the parent with a digital receipt via email.
