Yearbook Photo Policy Upsets Senior

Katie Richardson (pictured) had plenty of ideas for her senior yearbook photo. Like posing with her guitar, the Lake City High School senior said, to leave her mark as an artist. "I love singing and I love music," said Richardson, 16. "I just wanted to have fun photos." But her yearbook photo will feature the same aspect of herself as every other senior: Her head and torso. That's not enough, Richardson argues. And some other students feel the same. According to the school's policy for senior yearbook photos, seniors must only provide vertical shots of the waist up, face to the front, with professional quality resolution, no soft focus, and no props, animals or other people/Alecia Warren, Coeur d'Alene Press.

Question: Do you agree with LCHS senior Katie Richardson that her school should allow leeway with senior photos?
