Due to circumstances out of our control, the PSD pageant will be held in the senior high gym instead of the auditorium. Please make sure to attend rehearsal so that you are familiar with the set up and arrangements. The Senior High Gym is located on the High School campus at 1701 West Court Street. Once you enter the parking lot look for the building with the round roof and enter through the glass doors that face the side of court street. Email jwallace@paragouldschools.net with any questions.


Congratulations to Paragould High School for being named to the 2024 AP School Honor Roll! The AP School Honor Roll recognizes schools whose AP program is delivering results and broadening access for students. Schools can earn the Honor Roll recognition annually based on criteria that reflect a commitment to increasing their school’s college-going culture, providing opportunities for students to earn college credit, and maximizing college readiness. PHS was awarded the Bronze Level in 2024. A big shout out to all of our 2024 AP Scholar Graduates and to our amazing AP teachers. Paragould is blessed to have teachers that are dedicated to our students and their education. For more about this award and our AP program, check out the article in this month's edition of NEA's Premiere Magazine featuring AP student, Sam Hooten and AP Coordinator, Sarah Cooper.


Just a reminder, Parent-Teacher conferences will be held tomorrow, February 6th, from 4:00-7:00pm. Teachers will be available in their classrooms during this time.
Also, students DO NOT have school on Friday, February 7th. This is a staff development day.


Juniors and guardians,
On Monday, Feb. 3, during RTI, juniors will receive an ACT opt in form. Every student who wants their free March 11 ACT score sent to a college/trade school or count in their superscore and show in their ACT account, needs to have this opt in form on file with Mrs. Horn by the end of February. Not turning it in does NOT get you out of taking the test on March 11. If you do not turn it in, you will take the test for the state to have a score on file, but you will have to either pay to have it sent to colleges/trade schools, or you will need to retake it for a reportable score.
Guardians, please remind your junior to give you the form Monday evening to sign and return it to Mrs. Horn in the counseling office ASAP. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me at the number below.

There are currently six Paragould School District bus routes that will be impacted due to flooding concerns. We certainly understand that some students may need to be checked out early due to these concerns. Please watch for upcoming notifications for bus 5, 10, 74, 78, 86, and 90.

We want to extend our heartfelt CONGRATULATIONS to all who competed and placed at the STATE BETA convention. We are proud of you! More photos can be found on the PSD Facebook page.
