Don’t toss those picture packets just yet! 📸 Even if you didn’t purchase school pictures, each packet from Barksdale includes a secure image card on the back with your child’s photo. These cards are great to keep on hand in case of an emergency. They provide a current picture that can be shared with law enforcement if ever needed. Check the back before you recycle!

¡No tires todavía los paquetes de fotos! 📸 Aunque no hayas comprado fotos escolares, cada paquete de Barksdale incluye una tarjeta con la foto de tu hijo/a en la parte posterior. Estas tarjetas son muy útiles en caso de emergencia. Proporcionan una foto reciente que se puede compartir con la policía si fuera necesario. ¡Revisa la parte posterior antes de reciclar!
