Senior Portrait Submissions

Please take note of the November deadline and the detailed directions for submitting your image correctly.

Deadlines and Formats

  • The firm deadline for submitting senior portraits is Tuesday, November 15. Please plan to prepare you and your photographer for this due date. Portraits received after this date may not be published in the yearbook.
  • Photos will need to be uploaded to the website: https://images.jostens.com/ImageShare/upload

Please inform your photographer of the following criteria:

  • Students use a photographer of their choice to capture their senior portraits for the yearbook.
  • Upload only ONE digital portrait photo.
  • Photo quality must be 300 DPI or higher for actual image size. Jpeg format is required. 
  • Portraits should be vertical head-and-shoulder shots; we will not accept horizontal or full-body photos.
  • Simple, neutral backgrounds look best in the yearbook.

We realize that the more formal, head-and-shoulders shot may not be your favorite pose or the one you choose to exchange with friends, but these guidelines will ensure consistency in the yearbook.
