Tomorrow we take the writing portion of the ATLAS test in grades 3 and 4. Please make sure your students get plenty of rest tonight, eat something tomorrow morning, and come to school encouraged. Thank you for helping us do our best on the test! OGE is the place to be!
Our theme this year is "It Takes a Village"
Well, our village showed up and showed out and helped us PASS the bond restructure! We are beyond thankful to everyone who voted FOR the Rams! Let's continue to work together towards achieving our goals and driving the Paragould School District to new heights. Our village is strong! Great things are happening and even greater things are to come.

Tomorrow is wear Green Day for Dr. Seuss Read Across America.

Early Voting Starts February 20th. Remember, voting FOR a bond restructure WILL NOT increase your tax rate.

The District is currently exploring calendar options for the 2024-2025 school start date. We are asking for your feedback. Would you support efforts in seeking a waiver to start the 2024-2025 school year as soon as August 12, 2024, in place of August 19, 2024? Starting a week early will give the District a better chance of being out of school prior to Memorial Day. Click the link below to submit your response.

The Paragould Police Department is investigating a threatening note found on the Junior High School Campus. They have determined where the note originated and have arrested the student that wrote the note. The District encourages parents to speak with their children about the seriousness and potential consequences of making threats, even as a joke. All threats are taken seriously and investigated, and any students caught making threats may face possible criminal charges and expulsion from school. Student safety will always be paramount within the Paragould School District.
PSD to host 2nd Bond Restructure Public Forum this Thursday at 6:00pm. The meeting will be held on the Oak Grove Middle School campus. All are welcome and invited to attend.
