❄️ Snow Day / Activities Cancelled – Tuesday, January 27 ❄️

Pauls Valley Schools will be closed on Tuesday, January 27, due to continued hazardous road conditions.

After evaluating side streets and rural routes (and after personally getting stuck and assisting others who were stuck), we determined it is not safe to open school tomorrow.

The sunshine today has helped improve conditions, and we are hopeful that another day of sun will make travel safe. Our crews continue working on school parking lots and walkways, and will have them ready once it is safe to return.

Thank you for your patience and understanding as the safety of our students, staff, and families remains our top priority. Please continue to monitor the Pauls Valley Schools App and our Facebook page for updates.

PS: Mr. Midkiff's picture yesterday at Whitebead left us inspired and definitely wishing we were somewhere warm in all this cold!

📢 School Closure Notice – Traditional Snow Day

Pauls Valley Schools will be closed tomorrow (Friday, January 23rd) due to inclement weather. This will be a traditional snow day, with no virtual instruction.

This decision was made after carefully balancing student safety with the needs of our community while monitoring changing weather forecasts. We must also consider the safety of our staff who commute, students who drive or walk to school, and ensure we never place our buses on the road in unsafe, inclement weather.

Thank you for your understanding and continued support as we prioritize the safety of our students and staff. Please stay safe and warm, and continue to watch for updates.
