Friday, February 12, will be a virtual learning day for all K-12 students. PSD will be closed due to the inclement weather. Instruction will take place through Zoom and Google classroom.
Reminder: Monday, February 15, is scheduled as a virtual day regardless of weather.
*Pre-K, S21C, and virtual students will attend school as normal.
*No K-12 grade students will attend on campus that day.
*K-12 grade students who normally attend on campus should have their Chromebooks and chargers at home and will attend school virtually on virtual days through Zoom and Google Classroom.
*Teachers will assist students with making sure virtual day materials are available offline for students with no Internet connection outside school.
Thursday, February 11, will be a virtual learning day for all K-12 students. PSD will be closed due to the inclement weather. Instruction will take place through Zoom and Google classroom.
Today, Wednesday, February 10, will be a virtual learning day for all K-12 students. PSD will be closed today due to the inclement weather.
PSD will be sending Chromebooks and chargers home each day for the rest of the week. Please return the devices to school each day with your child. This does not mean students have the OPTION of staying home. This is in case the school district has to close due to inclement weather.
If PSD closes, students will transition to virtual learning. Your child should meet through Zoom with his/her teacher on virtual learning days.
In the event that you lose internet connection as a result of weather, your child’s work can be made up at a later time. If a majority of the district is without internet, parents will be notified that students should work on a “No Internet” set of assignments for the day that are available offline. This will only need to be done if the school or district informs you specifically to do this.
If you do not have the Paragould School District app on your smartphone, please download it so you will receive the latest school information. You can also check KAIT and the Multicultural Rams of Paragould Facebook page for updates on school closures in English, Spanish and Marshallese.
Please charge the Chromebook nightly so that your child can access his/her instructional materials when necessary. Thank you for your assistance.
PSD administration is monitoring the weather closely. Chromebooks and chargers will be sent home with all K-12 students this afternoon. Paper packets are being sent home with PK students this afternoon. In the event that PSD is closed tomorrow, the district will utilize a virtual day for grades K-12. Students will need to bring the Chromebooks and chargers back to school when they return.

The web address for HAC has changed. This change has caused the eSchool Plus Family app to be temporarily unavailable. The app developer is working on this problem.
You can still check HAC using a browser by visiting paragould.k12.ar.us - Menu - Home Access Center Login. Guardian and student login information did NOT change. If you don't remember your login info, you can get it from the main office at your student's school.
