As we monitor the current weather conditions, we want to keep you informed about potential changes to events scheduled for this weekend. The National Weather Service out of Memphis has identified our area as a catastrophic flooding threat through Sunday. With a dangerous weather pattern continuing over the next couple of days, the National Weather Service is expecting 10-15 inches of rainfall north of I-40. With higher amounts possible, this could lead to severe flooding that may escalate quickly. The safety of our students is our top priority. As a result, we are considering alternate locations for prom and will work with local officials to determine the best options for Saturday. If necessary, we will make a decision regarding the postponement of events based on the most up-to-date weather information. We will notify families of any changes or decisions via text message and push notification through the PSD app by 4:00pm on Saturday afternoon. We encourage you to stay informed and prepared as we continue to monitor the situation closely. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation during this time. We are committed to ensuring the safety and well-being of our students and community.

English Due to the weather forecast for this afternoon, PSD will be dismissing two hours early today. We have bus routes that are in excess of an hour and a half in length and student safety is the priority. All after school tutoring is canceled for Wednesday, April 2. Additionally, all afternoon athletic, band, and club activities will be canceled. Español Debido al pronóstico del tiempo para esta tarde, PSD despedirá dos horas antes hoy.

Paragould School District administration will be watching the weather very closely on Wednesday, April 2. If severe storms impact our area prior to dismissal, or if the storms have the potential to impact our area during afternoon bus routes, we may need to modify dismissal plans. Notification of any changes to the normal dismissal plans will be communicated via text and push notification on the PSD app. Notifications will also be posted on Facebook, KAIT8, and through local radio stations.

Senior Parents: We are excited to invite you to Senior Signing Day on Friday, April 4, 2025, at 1 PM at Paragould High School. This special event honors the Class of 2025 as they announce their next steps—whether that’s attending college, starting a career, or joining the military. It’s a wonderful opportunity to celebrate their hard work and future plans with family, friends, and the school community. To ensure that each senior is recognized, we ask that all students complete the assigned forms tonight in the Counselor’s Google Classroom. These forms provide us with important details about their post-graduation plans and help us prepare for the event.
