Parent helpers are needed during Picture Day on Tuesday (September 25th).
Parent helpers assist the photographer in making sure that pictures are taken in an orderly fashion. Helpers also make sure kids look their best by straightening outfits and smoothing little hairdos. Here are some of the things parent helpers can keep an eye on so every photo turns out great:
- Clothing: buttons are buttoned and collars lie flat.
- Accessories: Straighten hair clips and make sure jewelry clasps are behind the neck.
- Hair and face: Check that hair is neat and noses and faces are clean.
