PARCHMENT
If you need to send a copy of your transcript to a college or potential employer, you need to create a Parchment account. Go to Parchment.com and sign up with a NON-SCHOOL email. DO NOT use your school email, as it will be deactivated shortly after graduation. Transcripts are free for Seniors until a few weeks after graduation, so make use of this service now!
**Important** ACT scores are not automatically attached to your transcript. If you would like your ACT scores included with your transcript, you must email [email protected] BEFORE you submit your Parchment request.

Seniors will submit photos that meet the deadline and both the aesthetic and technical specifications of the yearbook. If you have not yet scheduled a sitting with a professional photographer, do so now if you intend to use one.

- Preferably, a head & shoulders pose
- 2.25” wide by 3” height at a resolution of 300 DPI

HELPFUL NOTES:
