Hey everyone!
School starts on Tuesday so I’m just posting my classroom wishlist for the McNeil High School publications program. The yearbook and newspaper kids specifically requested a lot of these items for photography demos as well as staff bonding. Anything helps!

Hey everyone!
I know it is early to be thinking about going back to school but since there is a prime day this week I figured I would post it now. This is the list of wants/needs for the McNeil High School yearbook and newspaper program. Some things are for fun and some are more functional, but all the fun stuff is for photo demos (using hot wheels to learn shutter speed). Anything is greatly appreciated and will be loved by almost 200 eager photographers.
