Ouch. While I never was in the new media center–I attended from 1970-79, and Mrs. Tedder was *my* librarian in the tiny library next to the rest rooms!–I am saddened by the loss. Is there an address/contact/website/email for sending donations, both books and cash?

Many in my family and their friends, went to Pollard McCall over many years. I grew up in Mobile Al but stayed with my grandfather for about 3 mos in 1970 and attended McCall School during that time. Because of the history of the school and my family attending it, it holds a very dear place in my heart. I am truly saddened by the fire.

My granddaughters went to McCall and they loved it. They moved away when the oldest graduated the eight grade and I can tell you she never loved her new school as much as she did McCall. When.I called and told her it was on fire she told me she sat down cried because I felt like I had lost part of me. These old schools like McCall. Byrnville and Century have a lot of good memories for most of us.

are going to be accepting book donations? It would be nice if the surrounding communities would set up a book drive at their local libraries…I have plenty i could donate…..we could donate more than just books too if they are accepting other items. Please let us know what we can do to help
