Attention Paw Paw families: Students in grades Kindergarten through through 5th grade are going to be dismissed at 10:45 this morning due to a power outage. Because our middle school and high school building have power, students in grades 6 through 12 will be released at their normal times today. Again, K-5 and GSRP students will be released at 10:45 this morning. Bus riders will board the busses at that time.
We are extremely sorry for any inconvenience this causes.
Wishing all of our Paw Paw families a great weekend! We are looking forward to seeing students back in school on Monday. Please send students with a mask if possible. All those who arrive without one will be provided with a disposable mask at the bus stop or building entry door. Don't forget, Monday is a 1/2 day of school!
