If you are using a digital camera, try for the highest resolution setting. You may need to change your picture quality settings to "Best" or "Highest Quality" (or however your camera describes it).

The AFT does not want to put our members' jobs at risk. If you would like to help in this effort, we recommend that you take these pictures after school hours. PLEASE DO NOT PHOTOGRAPH STUDENTS UNLESS YOU HAVE OBTAINED THE NECESSARY RELEASES. Try to avoid photographs of adults, but if it is necessary please get a release; we can provide sample language.

Please send us your images by October 13. Include descriptions of what the images depict.

They can be emailed to tolshefs@aft.org; burned to a CD (preferable) and mailed to Tish Olshefski, AFT, 555 New Jersey Avenue, NW; Washington, DC 20001 or print copies mailed to same address. Please don’t forget to provide contact information including who you are, how we can reach you, the name of your school, district and state.
