Underclass (not Seniors) Picture Day is THIS FRI., SEPT 15.
Photo order forms were distributed to all 2nd period teachers 9/12 and is to be given to students 9/13. If you are ordering photos, payment is due FRI., however, if your student forgets their form & payment, or if you decide to place an order after photo day, I will provide a phone number to call the studio direct. ALL students are required to have their photo taken, but are NOT required to buy anything.
ALL yearbook pictures must be taken by Prestige Photo. Seniors have 2 options: a day in Dec. for seniors to have a (yearbook) headshot (no other poses) taken AT school for a $15 sitting fee. You may go to another studio for the Senior pictures. You may also make an appointment to go to Prestige's studio for the headshot ($15) or the senior photo package. If you buy a package from them, the $15 fee will come off the total price. The $15 sitting fee still applies and students will be asked to sign up for this opportunity closer to the photo date. Payment is due at time of sitting.
YEARBOOK
We are planning to produce a hardcover book and are finalizing details. Additional information will be available at the October meeting.
We heard many complaints about the 05-06 Yearbook CD. We produced the CD only because we did not meet our minimum sales number to publish (150 books to meet minimum/52 sold), and had no way to cover the entire expense of publishing the books through the yearbook fund (several thousand dollars). There were many opportunities at school and via email last year for students to purchase the yearbook. Even with students putting the book together, printing costs (paper, black/white versus color) and binding are expensive. We tried to find the most economical company/version of book to offer. The CDs were very cost effective and a way to
record as many memories as possible. Student Publications are sales driven and without strong sales, we must have a back-up plan.
If you have any questions, comments or concerns, please feel free to contact me anytime. My office hours are 10:25 to 11:15 am and 2:35 to 3:00. I do have voicemail, however, the best way to reach me is through email as I check it more often and access it frequently from home. My information is below.
Thank you all very much for your time and for your support. It has been and will always be greatly appreciated.
Sincerely, Deanna L. Tratensek

IPS RENEWAL INVITATION
Our first meeting of the 2006-07 school year is this Saturday, September 16th from 11am to noon at the Harrison Center for the Arts, 1501 N. Delaware .
Dr. Jane Kendrick, Assistant Superintendent for High Schools, will be our guest speaker. As we are all aware of the problems facing our high schools, this is an opportunity to hear what is already happening, as well as other changes that are in the planning stages. We will also be discussing the third phase of the IPS building renovations. The Renewal Team has been asked to take a leadership role in this process, and we will need everyone’s support in this endeavor. This will be a very busy year for the Renewal Team and we hope to see all of you at this meeting so everyone can be informed!

CIRCLE CITY CLASSIC Your help is needed!
During last year's Circle City Classic and this year's Indiana Black Expo over 10 area church congregations participated in the Faith Based Patrol effort. Groups of four and five walked with IPD to patrol the streets and help provide a community atmosphere in downtown. We are
eager to help provide the same safe environment during the 2006 Circle City Classic on October 7.
This event draws thousands of people from across the nation, and while there is seldom a problem at the actual venue, police are often stretched too thin to manage pedestrian and vehicular traffic as hundreds of young people come downtown to cruise. In order to accomplish the Faith Based Patrol this year we need your help. We are asking you to identify volunteers or parents (male or female) who can help patrol downtown Indianapolis during three-hour increments:
Saturday October 7th 9 PM - 12 AM and 12 AM - 3 AM
Volunteers will park at the Indianapolis Urban League and be transported into downtown by bus with a police escort. There will be refreshments located in the IMCOPS van behind the Hyatt during the evenings for volunteers.
The next training meeting will be held at IPD East District Headquarters, 3120 E. 30th Street (Washington Park) Thursday, September 21st at 7:00 PM. If you are available to help patrol OUR streets please attend this meeting/training.
