Your Retake Picture Package will be produced and shipped to the school four weeks after Retake Day. Please note, if your child is photographed on the original and Retake Picture Days, the Retake picture will replace the original picture in certain products, like the yearbook.
Students who were absent for Picture Day should come to school prepared to have their picture taken. If you have not preordered, please use the Retake Order Code 80339VF to place your order at https://inter-state.com/Order. To see your Order History, check your Inter-State Account.

[Text from tonight's robocall]: Good evening, Arcade Elementary families! This is Principal Kerry Slocum calling with two announcements tonight. First, I'd like to remind you that there is no school for students tomorrow--Friday, October 20th. Tomorrow is a staff development day, so no students will attend school. Second, rather than sending another robocall later this weekend, I'm taking this opportunity to inform you that we will conduct our first lockdown drill sometime on Monday. This drill will be less than five minutes long, and therefore should not interfere with our normal operations. I'm enjoying working with you and your children, and I appreciate all the ways you support our school. Thank you, and have a good night.
Picture Day is Monday, Sept. 18. Order before Picture Day to receive free shipping to the school. Ordering online is easy, visit https://inter-state.com/FlyerEntry/80340FF.
Happy Friday, everyone! Thank you for making it a fantastic first week! Please check backpacks after school today for a note from the principal, including directions for joining Remind so you can receive updates directly on your phone. These messages will be limited to reminders, announcements, changes/cancellations of events. You will not be able to reply. This is in addition to, not in place of, current procedures like notes home, robocalls, or Dojo updates from teachers, so there is no obligation to join, and you can remove yourself at any time. It's just another way to stay informed, especially for those who don't use social media. Thank you! --Ms. Slocum
