Proposal and Evaluation Section Is it acceptable to include links to our work examples for some larger file size items, such as yearbook examples?

We would like to offer similar units to help with an 'apples to apples' comparison, in addition to what families are used to. Does the District receive rebates for photography from its vendor? If so, what percentage or price per package? We thank you in advance.
