Dear Students, Parents, and Guardians,

 
Wagner Portrait Group has opened one last time for any virtual or in-person students who missed picture or retake day due to quarantine or any other circumstances. 
 
They have set up February 2 from 4:30 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. at their studio (11440 Olive Blvd, 63141) for all make up pictures. Any underclassmen who has not been photographed should call to make an appointment.  Their number is 314-567-5900. Underclassmen who have not been photographed will not be in the portrait section of the yearbook.
 
Wagner has also been contacting seniors about their pictures. At this point, most of our seniors have had their yearbook photos with Wagner, but some have not. Wagner has opened up a few more dates and has sent a text blast to parents, so please make sure you have taken care of senior pictures. We do not want anyone left out of the yearbook! Again, Wagner's number is 314-567-5900.
