| Senior Portraits for Yearbook | March 26 | Free. Roughly 2x2 inches. We crop to fit if necessary. Unlike other high schools, we can take any professional OR nonprofessional casual snapshot pose rather than only a tight headshot. Email one .jpg image file to yearbook@gibsonek.org. We’ll use the fall gym portrait for seniors who do not submit an official senior photo. |
| Senior Quotes & Song | March 26 |
Seniors have the option to submit a very short parting statement, quote, etc. within 80 characters, including spaces -- obviously with school-appropriate content. Please email to yearbook@gibsonek.org. No obligation, though: Seniors who do not submit any words will see just their name under their photo. This year, on top of the collective senior song to represent us as a whole, we will be doing individual senior songs. These songs can be submitted along with your quote and senior photo. They will be displayed as a Spotify code underneath your quote if submitted. Please submit the clean versions and keep them school-appropriate. |
