Due to the boil advisory remaining in effect and out of an abundance of caution for the health and safety of our students and staff, Pauls Valley Schools will continue virtual learning tomorrow, Friday, March 6, 2026.
We have been advised by the City of Pauls Valley that bacterial testing results will not be available until tomorrow, so the boil advisory must remain in place for now.
Elementary Families:
📌 Packet Pickup will be available from 9:00–10:00 AM in the Elementary parking lot.
If you are unable to pick up a packet during that time, please notify your child’s teacher through the Rooms app.
Intermediate, Junior High, and High School Students:
📌 Please continue to check Google Classroom for assignments, instructions, and teacher communication.
We appreciate your patience and flexibility as we work through this situation. Our priority is always the safety and well-being of our students and staff. Thank you for supporting Pauls Valley Schools. ❤️🖤🤍
If additional updates become available, we will share them as soon as possible.

Due to the boil advisory issued for the City of Pauls Valley, Pauls Valley Schools will shift to virtual learning on Thursday, March 5, 2026. This decision was made after careful consideration of the requirements needed to safely hold school in person. Drinking water, cafeteria cooking and preparation of vegetables, dishwashing, and proper handwashing all rely on safe, clean water, and at this time, we cannot meet those needs while the advisory is in effect.
Elementary Families:
📌 Packet Pickup will be available from 9:00–10:00 AM in the Elementary parking lot.
If you are unable to pick up a packet during that time, please notify your child’s teacher through the Rooms app.
