Hey 99 parents! The PA is currently putting together the 2021 yearbook, and we still need some of your photos!
If you’ve participated in Picture Day, or submitted a Remote headshot, then you’re all set. Otherwise, we’d love to include your child in the grade pages!
Here’s a quick video on how to send us the photos.
The corresponding upload links will be posted on the PA Dojo.
We hope we can see some more smiling faces on those yearbook pages! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QtqJ08xMxzM
