Mount Everett's Fall Pep Rally
This week Mount Everett students helped to set up, organize, photograph, and edit SBRSD school portraits and sports photographs. This service learning endeavor is a great way for students to experience working in the field of photography, while also giving back to their community. Your school portraits are almost ready and will be emailed soon!
