School Lets Students Dress up as Pop Culture Icons for ID Photos
By Mark PygasUpdated Sept. 12 2019, 2:50 p.m. ET
Kids are starting to head back to school, and as part of their enrolment, they're all getting photos taken for their school IDs. But some schools are putting in a lot more effort than others when it comes to making the whole process fun.
For the last few years, North Farmington High in Michigan has allowed students to dress up as pop culture icons for their photographs, all in a bid to make the first day back at school a bit more enjoyable. And 2019 is no different, with students flooding to Twitter to share their awesome ID ideas with their followers.
This student took some inspiration from Parks and Recreation, dressing up as Andy Dwyer's alter-ego of FBI agent Burt Tyrannosaurus Macklin.
