Today PPPS educators met to review programs that provide additional support for students. It's our mission to develop, support, challenge and inspire every child for life-long success.
Optional Fall Testing
Any student interested in taking the SAT, NMSQT, or PSAT this Fall must sign up via the google form sent to their email.
Reminder that tomorrow (Wednesday) is our first Early Release. We will dismiss at 1:45pm.
To access current school bus information like what time your child's bus is expected to be at their stop, download the Versatrans My Stop App on Android or iPhone! Once downloaded, enter your child's secure Student ID as the username and their 8 digit birthdate as the password.
Good Afternoon Paw Paw Families,
This is Stephanie Walker, the Paw Paw Public Schools Director of Business Operations. I hope everyone had a great first week of school!
Due to some of the buses running behind in the morning from construction in the area, we will be moving up a few bus routes by 10 minutes on Tuesday, September 7th.
The Butterfly, Frog, Monkey, Bunny and Eagle will be moved up by 10 minutes in the morning ONLY. For example, if your current pick up time is 8:00 am it will be adjusted to 7:50 am.
Thank you for being patient as this will allow us to get all the kids to school in a timely manner.

Dear High School Parents,
The staff at Paw Paw High School is looking forward to the opportunity to meet with parents and students during our Open House that is scheduled for Monday, August 23 from 6:00- 7:30 pm. Because all of our students and their parents are invited to Open House, we have put some guidelines in place to help us maintain a safe environment for all. Please be aware of the following:
1. As much as possible, all families are asked to limit those attending the High School Open House to the child attending Paw Paw High School and his/her parents or guardians.
2. All those attending the Open House are highly encouraged to wear a mask while inside the school buildings.
3. Families are asked to attend the Open House during the time slots indicated below. We understand that this schedule may not work for everyone and welcome students and parents to attend at alternate times if necessary.

We’ve had some questions about a supply list. Because class needs vary greatly depending on a student’s schedule, we don’t have a standard supply list.
What we can recommend to start the year is:
A folder and notebook for each class (5)
A box of pencils
A few pens (blue or black, preferable)
Optional-
Calculator
Index cards
Highlighter
Sticky notes
In addition, a personal hand sanitizer is a good idea.
Teachers will let you know about class specific needs at open house.
