HOMECOMING INFORMATION - September 14-18 Monday - Twin Day Tuesday - Throwback Tuesday - 90's Day Wednesday - Pink Day (Scheduled 2 hour early dismissal day) Thursday - Senior Character Day and Underclass Wacky Tacky Day Friday - Braves Day - Pep Rally - full day but will operate on 2 hour early dismissal schedule Saturday - Dance, 6 - 9 pm Homecoming ticket sales start on GoFan for all students this week! Tickets are $25 each and can be bought online through GoFan or in person at the School Bank for cash/check during Pride Time. More information in the Braves Bulletin. Juniors and Seniors ONLY can request to bring an outside guest to the dance. To start the Guest Request process, Juniors & Seniors will first fill out the Google Form found in this link Remember that all school debt, including cafeteria debt, must be cleared to attend Homecoming (or you must be on an approved payment plan and working toward paying off your debt).  If you pay School Debt online using My School Bucks, there will be a delay in getting your Student ID added to GoFan as the two systems are not connected and the process is manual. If you return a lost item to the Media Center, the School Bank will not automatically be notified, and you will have to let Mrs. Eschenbrenner know that the item has been returned; she will then manually update GoFan.  If you have any questions about Homecoming tickets, please contact Mrs. Eschenbrenner in the School Bank: jreschenbrenner@smcps.org.

Class of 2027 - Senior Portrait Information

If you have not yet taken your senior portrait to be featured in Chopticon's Yearbook, we have three more dates available to schedule: October 19, November 2nd, and November 16th. These are the last three chances to get a senior portrait featured in the yearbook. This includes any early graduates wishing to be featured as a senior.

Please use this link to schedule: https://seniors.legacystudios.com/chopticon-hs-morganza-md/ Seniors may get their yearbook photo taken for free -- $0 Sitting Fee, 2 Photos Taken, Total of 1 Outfit, with Yearbook Attire (Tux & Drape) provided. Any additional poses or packages will come at a cost to the student/family.

All senior portraits will take place in the Media Center (not the auditorium) due to renovation updates happening in the building. Please pay special attention to the time/date you pick, as these dates are all during school hours and you may need to leave class to make your appointment.

If you have questions about how to schedule, what to wear, or costs, please visit https://seniors.legacystudios.com/chopticon-hs-morganza-md/ or contact Legacy's Customer Care department at 716-512-6336 or customercare@legacystudios.com. There is also an FAQ page here: https://seniors.legacystudios.com/#FAQ. Please do not contact the school itself with questions; they will refer you to these exact resources.  Yearbook Sponsor - Ms. Duriez (kbduriez@smcps.org)

9th, 10th and 11th Grade Picture Days Attention students and families, Picture Day is right around the corner! Students will get their picture taken on either Thursday, September 10th or Friday, September 11, during their English class.  Students will NOT receive their new school IDs on Picture Day; please plan accordingly for attending events such as Homecoming. Makeups will be in October, at a date to be later announced. The link to purchase photos will be made available in the Braves Bulletin after photos have been taken; please check back for more info. If you have any questions, please email the yearbook adviser, Ms. Duriez (kbduriez@smcps.org).
