Our 8th-grade farewell will take place June 4th, 5-7 pm. We welcome all our 8th-grade students for one final send-off.

Check out this exciting new mural outside the Performing Arts Center at PPHS! The high school's new Independent Art Class, Creative Career & Collective (3C), worked on designing the mural. With guidance from PPHS Art Teacher Sarah Bentley, the work symbolizes the unique strength, diversity, and creativity of Paw Paw students. Students were tasked with designing a butterfly mural. Eleventh-grade student Ezekiel King won the design contest! Art students worked together to bring the mural to life during and after school. Ezekiel had this to say about the finished mural, "It represents that even though everyone is different and might not get along, our school unifies us and we always cheer each other along in our sports or when we're doing school activities." #mural #art #arteducation #teenleaders #publicart #buildtogetherpawpaw

We are asking our current 7th-grade parents to complete a Washington D.C. trip survey. We need to use the data to see if we have enough interest.
In the past, our 8th-grade students visited Washington D.C. as an end-of-the-year trip. We stopped during Covid and are considering re-establishing the trip. It is a valuable experience for our students but costly, so we would like to get parent feedback. This potential trip would be at the end of next year.
