Attached below are flyers for ImageShare (an app to share photos with the Mills yearbook staff). OR you can submit photos at images.balfour.com using product number 128399. Be sure to include the student's name and grade level.There will be social distancing procedures as students await their turn for photos inside the gym. Students must abide by the signage.

January is School Board Appreciation Month and we asked our board members to share a little about themselves. Dr. Linda Remele, board president, is married with one son, one step-son, 2 granddaughters and 5 cats. Her greatest pleasure in retirement is volunteering, especially at McPherson Women’s prison, Care Channel and at Sylvan Hills Middle. One thing she's learned during COVID, is to reach out to your family and friends to keep in touch since you can’t see them in person. This pandemic is hard for all people at all ages. Thank you, Dr. Remele, for your dedication to PCSSD! #pcssdproud #equityandexcellence
