CALLING ALL SENIORS: Share Your Pictures for the Senior Video!

We're collecting photos from the Class of 2025 to celebrate your journey from elementary school to senior year! We want to feature snapshots of every senior, capturing the moments that defined your school experience—whether it's a field trip from elementary school, a middle school club, or a memorable high school event.

We need your help to make your senior video as complete as possible! This is your chance to contribute to a project that represents the entire graduating class. We are looking for:

  • Elementary School Memories – Class parties, playground fun, school performances, and more!

  • Intermediate & Middle School Moments – Sports, clubs, dances, and everyday snapshots with friends.

  • High School Highlights – Spirit days, extracurriculars, and behind-the-scenes moments that made these years special.

Out of school moments and celebrations are welcome as well!

How to Submit Your Photos:

  • Accept the Canvas Course invitation and upload into the folders provided- remember to label names so we know who you are!

  • Due April 15!

Let’s make this a true celebration of every senior’s journey! No moment is too small or too big—if it’s meaningful to you, we want to see it.

Questions? Contact Rachel Rushworth-Hollander at rachel.rush-holl@maryville-schools.org

Thank you for helping us capture the story of the Class of 2025! We can’t wait to see your memories!
