There will be NO SCHOOL on Monday, February 17th in observance of Presidents' Day. Enjoy your long weekend!

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.
