Parents/Guardians - Please share your volleyball pictures!
We have a new feature in our yearbook program this school year and we are able to create a "community photo album" so that parents/guardians of Oglesby Schools can share pictures they take at extracurricular events. All extracurriculars have a designated photo album where parents/guardians can upload their pictures. These photos can then be shared in our social media posts, website and our yearbook.
PLEASE NOTE: While we appreciate every submission, please understand that due to the volume we receive, space limitations and some students who cannot have pictures shared on social media, we may not be able to feature every photo on social media, our website, or in the yearbook.
If you have pictures from an event that do not have a designated photo album, please email Traci Tomasson at tomassont@ops125.net to see if one can be added or not.
