This year, weโre rewinding to an iconic day of the school year โ School Picture Day โ and giving it the full gala glow-up. Think crisp collars, bold choices, and the outfit you begged to wear (or absolutely did). Come dressed in your fanciest look, channel your childhood photo-day energy, or remix a real throwback from your own school portrait era.
Expect vintage school vibes with a polished twist: hall passes, headshots, nostalgia, and just enough mischief to make your inner kid proud. Weโll be striking poses, swapping lore about our chosen 'fits, and raising critical funds for the SES programs we know and love.
Hereโs your homework: dig out a favorite school photo from days gone by and bring it along (or submit it in advance!) to help us build a gallery of picture-day memories throughout the space.
Funding for public education is far from Picture Perfect, but this night is sure to be! Stay tuned for more info soon.
