Naming+mug+shots

- scheduled with school photographer through Activities Office - last two years done during Flex time (an entire week) with one retake date in November. I sent the students who didn't have their photos taken a reminder for the retake date in November. Actually, I asked them to come to my office on the note and reminded them personally. I also emailed their parents. This year it was around 30 students. Only 10 came for the retake. For the remainder, I used their photo from the previous year - this was also in the email to parents - so probably no surprises. ( A few emails were returned to sender.) In the end, I only took 3 photos in Camera Shy for students who were new and didn't have a photo from the previous year. My philosophy - if you have to take photos of kids who don't go to see the school photographer, do it during their classes. Get schedule from Attendance Secretary. They probably won't do this the following year! If you find them with friends, etc, that just encourages this!
