🚨IMPORTANT🚨 CTHS 2025 Senior Portrait Information

2025 Seniors, parents and guardians,

As you move into this senior season, there are important deadlines for you and your student to know about the yearbook and portrait information.

CADY Studios is our school’s exclusive photographer and school pictures are different for seniors compared to underclassmen. For your child to be in their senior yearbook, you MUST have their portrait taken with CADY Studios. This is a busy year, so we recommend booking your CADY session this summer.

CADY Studios specializes in senior portraits with several different session options to fit every need. Their state-of-the-art studios have endless scene options, changing rooms and a professional staff. Their weekend schedules fill up fast, so book early to secure your spot!

CADY Studios will be on campus the following days for students to get senior portraits taken. Students MUST take their pictures with CADY Studios to be included in the yearbook. The yearbook uses the cap and gown photo for seniors.
Tuesday, Aug. 6 | Senior Roadshow 1 (ALL DAY — Charmers Gym)
Friday, Sept. 20 | Senior Road Show 2 (ALL DAY — Charmers Gym)
Thursday, Nov. 21 | Senior Road Show 3 (ALL DAY — Charmers Gym)
Get photos for your family, grad announcements, senior yearbook ads and more. Remember — Book early and don’t let your senior get left out of the yearbook!
