Throughout the Paw Paw Public Schools we are experiencing intermittent phones issues due to internet and power outages this morning. If necessary to communicate with the schools, please use email until this can be resolved. We appreciate your patience!

6th and 7th Grade Families,
Paw Paw Middle School is offering the option for your student to take Algebra in 8th grade. Your 6th grade or 7th grade student would complete an online course over the summer taking either 7th grade math or 8th grade math, respectively. At the end of the summer, your student will take a test demonstrating they have achieved proficiency in the standards for the course they took over the summer. If they pass, they will move on to either 8th grade math or Algebra.
Early next week, your student will receive a Google Form in their Google Classrooms. If this option interests you, please have your student fill out that form and then you will receive additional information regarding this program.
Thank you!

Due to a shortage in drivers today, Tuesday, May 11th we are unable to transport the children on the Bunny bus to and from school. I apologize for the inconvenience.

Good afternoon, PPMS Families. This afternoon just before dismissal there was a low-hanging wire in the back parking lot that ended up on the roof of a bus prior to middle school students boarding the bus. All students and the driver were evacuated safely and safety personnel are on the scene to make sure everything is safe for our visitors. Thank you to all who helped out in this situation!
