Lathrop Elementary will take our all school picture for the yearbook next Tuesday, September 3rd at 8:45 on the football field across from the elementary. We are asking that each grade level wear a certain color so it will be easier for students to find themselves in the picture. Copies of the picture are not for sale but a large poster will be put in the elementary office and the picture will be included in the year book.
Here are the colors we would like each grade level to wear:
Preschool, Kindergarten, and 3rd grade - White or Grey
1st and 4th grades - Gold or Yellow
2nd and 5th grade - Black
