Montgomery County Public Schools (MCPS) is inviting parents to submit their favorite first-day-of-school snapshots on Monday, August 29, 2016. Many pictures will be shared on the district’s website and social media beginning Monday morning. 

For email, parents should select the best horizontal first-day-of-school photo of their child(ren) and send the photo as a .jpeg file (no larger than 4 MB) to pio@mcpsmd.org. Please include your child’s name, grade level and school (we will not publish last names).

For social media, parents and students can post photos on Twitter using the hashtag #MCPS1stday. Some of the posts will be retweeted on the MCPS Twitter feed.

By submitting a photo, parents are agreeing to its use for publication on the MCPS website. If you have questions, contact the Department of Public Information and Web Services at 301-279-3853 or email us at pio@mcpsmd.org.
