Overview Portrait groups reflect the subject names and group assignments provided by your school. If your school is using the Lifetouch Portal, the groups in your Yearbook website will reflect any updates made in the Lifetouch Portal.

Best Practice & Next Steps Editing an existing portrait group is useful when the students or staff in the group have changed. For example, a new student who joins the class after Picture Retake Day or a temporary staff member who becomes permanent halfway through the school year.
