YEARBOOK PICTURES
The yearbook staff wants to include every student in the La Pantera yearbook, but they need your help. There are no more opportunities for traditional student portraits this year, so we need your selfie. Take your portrait at home, find Peninsula at hjeshare.com (school code 7435), choose your photo, crop and upload. Detailed instructions are available here or at hjeshare.com. Deadline to submit is January 1, 2021.
 
Telling the story of a school year is the responsibility of the yearbook staff, but in this COVID-19 era, it is different. They need whatever photos you have of school life, activities and events for 2020-2021. Not all photos will be published, but if you don't share, your pictures can't be considered. Go to hjeshare.com and enter school code 7435.
