We look forward to preparing a commemorative video for the Class of 2024. We need your help! We are hoping to get the following pictures of each graduate:
- Baby/toddler picture
- First communion/ second grade picture
- Picture of something they like doing now. Example, sport, hobby, etc.
- Group shots from over the years at St. Edward's
Mrs. Pokrywa will be creating this video and has sent links to your child's folders where you can upload these photos.
