If you have not yet ordered a yearbook, it must be ordered and paid for before April 15th. Unfortunately, no extras will be ordered, and no late orders will be accepted. If you don't remember if you ordered one, have your student check the list that was posted to their Google Classroom today. Otherwise, you can visit our school store and pay with a credit card, you can pay with cash, or you can make a check or money order out to Pana High School. The cost is $65.
