FBLA is currently collecting pictures for the senior slide show/DVD. Pictures are due by the end of the month. It is requested all seniors send three to four pictures with one picture being from when they were younger (baby picture). Students already turned in a senior picture and that will be used for the slide show as well. The pictures can be emailed to Mrs. Hanner (hannerm@tuscola.k12.il.us) or if pictures need to be scanned, students can bring them to Mrs. Hanner (in a clearly marked envelope) and they will be returned as soon as they are scanned. DVDs can be purchased for $10 a piece and will be available after graduation.
