Attention WMS families! Get your yearbook by December 31st to lock in the low pricing. Click here to access the yearbook site. Please be sure to type your student's name exactly as it is in Skyward. Also, we would love to have any pictures of your student enjoying Winter Break. Please email them to: jpora@portageps.org or lsdunfield@gmail.com Action shots make a great yearbook: playing in the snow, celebrating a favorite winter holiday, travel, sports or hobbies, etc. Lastly, if your student is involved in winter sports (basketball, swimming and diving, or archery) and you have action shots of games and competitions, please email them to one of us (jpora@portageps.org or lsdunfield@gmail.com) Thank you! Jacqueline Pora & Linda Dunfield WMS Yearbook Advisors
