This is your LAST chance to schedule your senior portraits on-site at Boston Latin School. Due to the number of seniors left to be photographed, we have now added an additional day on Thursday, March 9th from 1 – 6:30 p.m. There may still be a few slots left from Monday, March 6th through Wednesday, March 8th. Please call Chestnut Hills Studios at 508-336-4777, Monday – Friday 9:30 – 4:30 pm to book an appointment. Appointments are issued on a first-call basis. The photographer’s time will be reserved for you and will require a pre-payment of a $45.00 sitting fee when you schedule your appointment. The studio accepts Visa, MasterCard, Discover, and American Express. This is a reduced sitting fee again this year made possible through the cooperation of the administration and the studio.

Should you miss this round of photos and you wish your portrait to be included in the yearbook, you will be required to travel to the studio in Seekonk to be photographed for your portrait. Please visit the Chestnut Hill Studios website.

It is important that you arrive on time for your appointment or it can not be guaranteed that the studio will be able to fit you in to be photographed that day. You may be asked to reschedule, and you will be charged a $45.00 rescheduling fee. Booking your appointment ensures that your professional, retouched portrait is included in the yearbook.

It is important to note that Yearbook pictures may only be taken with Chestnut Hills Studios. We will not be accepting any pictures from outside sources.

If you have any questions, you may email me at mstiven@bostonpublicschools.org.

Hello Faculty, please make note that when you fill out the educational assessment form for IEP and 504 meetings, there is now a checkbox that will appear above the Create Final Document asking if you would like to document translated.

Please check it off as the Ed Assessment legally needs to be translated and the system will do it instead of our team having to send it out for translation. Thank you!

Students can receive one hour of community service for each pair donated. Please email a picture of your shoes to Ms. Sarkis for verification for InnerView.
