Many thanks to senior mom and designer Becca Lehman for helping make this happen!  We can say without any bias whatsoever that these are the most gorgeous lawn signs in town!  Anyone who wishes to get more of them can contact her directly through Expressions By Design, 208-629-8319.

We would love to have a picture of your senior with their sign, which we are putting into a photo album on Facebook!  Please send pics to Mrs. Claflin at secretary@clone.smtchs.org.
