SPRING CALENDAR CHANGE
We have adjusted the school calendar for the spring semester. Parent-teacher conferences will occur on Monday, March 10th, from 3:15-7:00, and Tuesday, March 11th, from 3:15-5:30. Parent-teacher conference day off will be observed on Friday, March 14th, instead of April 11th.
The day off on Friday, April 4th, was moved to the originally scheduled day off for parent-teacher conferences on April 11th.
This move was made to better accommodate the timing of parent-teacher conferences. We want to provide as much notice as possible regarding this change.
Santa will be at PV Elementary on Thursday, December 12, to take pictures with students. Please have your students dressed and ready for the photo.
Sylogist will be down for updates from November 27th through December 2nd at 6 am. Guardians will be unable to check grades or pay lunch bills online during this time. We apologize for this inconvenience. Please check our school's website for the updated link to log back into Sylogist on December 2nd.
The PV Elementary kitchen staff knows how to make students and staff feel extra blessed at Thanksgiving.

The Donald W. Reynolds Recreation Center's after-school program will begin at 3 p.m. on Friday. Due to early dismissal, this program will NOT have a bus route on Friday. If your student usually rides the bus to the Rec Center after school, please contact their school site to make alternative arrangements.

Due to the lengthy drive for Friday's state quarter-final football playoff game at Lincoln Christian and to account for the complications of Tulsa rush hour traffic, Pauls Valley Schools will release students early on Friday. Buses will begin their routes at Pauls Valley Elementary at 12:45 PM, and the Intermediate, Junior High and High School will dismiss at 1:00 PM.
Thank you for your understanding, and good luck to the Panthers on Friday night!
Out of an abundance of caution due to the forecast of potential for damaging winds and tornadoes during our commute times, Pauls Valley Schools will be delaying the start of school until 10:00 a.m. tomorrow, Monday, November 18th. Student safety is our top priority, and we want to avoid putting students on buses or student drivers in dangerous situations that can be avoided.
Buses will run two hours late. We will continue to monitor weather conditions in the morning to determine if any additional adjustments to bus route schedules may be necessary. Any changes will be sent out as soon as possible.
Please stay weather-aware!
We have collected several items from around the school that do not have names written on them. If you recognize any of these as belonging to your child, please reach out to the school office. With the weather growing cooler by the day, we want to ensure that everything is returned to its rightful owners as soon as possible. Thank you for your cooperation!
