Dear Tower Parents and Guardians, Picture Retake Day is scheduled for Thursday, November 16, 2023. On this day, we will be taking photographs of all students who were absent on the original picture day, which took place on October 2, 2023. Additionally, any students who have enrolled with us since that date will also have their pictures taken. If you are dissatisfied with your student's photo and wish to request a retake, kindly return the photo package with your student and inform the teacher. They will guide your student to have their picture retaken.
