Excellence in Education
Montesano is a community where people learn,
grow and work together. With high-quality
instruction, every student, regardless of race, class,
language, or disability, can succeed.
Picture Day at Montesano Jr-Sr High School will be Thursday, September 5. Once portraits are finalized by Jostens, parents can view and purchase their pictures online at https://shop.jostenspix.com.
Please remember not to wear green on picture day as this interferes with the photographers background settings.
NOTE: All students must be photographed for school records, regardless if they are ordering portrait packages from Jostens.
