Another view of the PJHS gym floor!
Here it is—the PJHS gym floor last week and this week. Wow! We are looking forward to the day when our students return and play on it! #psdrams
The Paragould School District is pleased to announce that we have signed a contract with Herff-Jones to produce a virtual graduation for the PHS Class of 2020. Please know that if state/national guidelines on COVID-19 are lifted regarding large gatherings, as specified by authorities, we will also have a traditional graduation ceremony this summer. PSD plans to honor the senior class with this production of their graduation. We are excited that we will have our seniors’ memories archived and produced in a professional manner for students to share with friends and family to be live-streamed and saved for years to come. While a virtual graduation is never a first choice under normal circumstances, we feel that this option is the best at this time. Seniors will be contacted in the near future with direction on how the collection of information will take place.
Can't wait to see the new PJHS gym floor! Stay tuned for more photos!
