Pictures for Bridging

Kindergarten always host a graduation program the last day of school.  We refer to the ceremony as our Bridging Ceremony.  Heather Foley, Olivia’s mother, has already spoken with photographer, Cindy Stansberry, in regards to taking pictures at the ceremony.  Below is a note from Heather that she would like for me to pass on to all the kindergarten parents.

Dear Parents,

Cindy Stansberry did a phenomenal job last time she was here to take pictures for our Bridging Ceremonies,  and I can not wait to have her there to capture these special moments for our family again.  I am going to attach some of her work so parents can get an idea of what they will receive. She takes pictures during the ceremony, individuals as well as family and friends. There are a TON of pictures on the CD/thumb drive Mrs. Joan has posted a couple of the pictures on the newsletter for your perusal.  They can also visit her website or facebook page to see more examples of her work if you are not familiar. She even took pictures at the reception. She was very thorough and all of the families were very pleased.

 She is keeping her pricing the same as before. $25 per disc. however she has added a new product that is available as well. Thumbdrives $30 You can specify which you prefer and send it in with a check payable to me and I will write one big check to Cindy or they can just make it payable to Cindy Stansberry. 

We do need to know who would like to take advantage of this so we can get the info to Cindy as soon as possible.

 Please save your 2 liter bottles and send them into class. Thanks
