A flier with a light gray and white textured background. At the top, in large black letters, it reads "DMS P.A.C." and "PARENT ADVISORY COUNCIL." To the right of the text is the logo for Douglas Middle School, which features a blue-colored wolf's head wearing a graduation cap.  Below this, there is a paragraph in a smaller, italicized font that states the purpose of the group: "The purpose of the Douglas Middle School PAC is to promote activities that enhance the joy and well-being of Douglas Middle School students while supporting the staff and the administration and keeping parents involved."  Near the bottom of the flier is a red rectangular box with the event details in white letters:  September 3, 2025  5:30-6:15 pm  in the DMS office  To the left of the red box, there is a small blue rectangular box with white, italicized text that reads: "Children welcome, no need to arrange child care."

Thank you for your patience as we learn our new Converse #1 app! Today at 8:00 AM we sent out a reminder about early release on Fridays. Unfortunately, the phone call displayed an incorrect number (from Little Rock, AR) instead of our Converse #1 phone number. We've corrected this issue and future calls will show the proper number. We also accidentally sent a duplicate message at 3:20 PM. If you did not receive the notifications, please contact your child's school. Thanks again for your understanding as we learn together!

 A whimsical, cartoon-style illustration of a camera on a tripod. The camera is gray with colorful accents in blue, green, yellow, and hot pink. The camera's screen displays the text "SCHOOL PICTURE DAY" in a simple, handwritten font. The overall style is playful and slightly retro, with a textured, crayon-like appearance.
