Hello OGMS family! Due to the possibility of snowy weather, there will be NO tutoring or other after school activities this afternoon. Students who typically participate in these will need to go home their normal way.
If you have transportation changes to make for today, please do so as soon as possible.
Also, if you haven't downloaded the Paragould app, now is the time! This gives you access to ALL of the districts announcements; remember to allow notifications, and ask your child's homeroom teacher for Rooms information. This is our main communication app and will keep you most up to date on the goings on at the Grove and in the district.
Happy Tuesday, OGMS family!

Due to circumstances out of our control, the PSD pageant will be held in the senior high gym instead of the auditorium. Please make sure to attend rehearsal so that you are familiar with the set up and arrangements. The Senior High Gym is located on the High School campus at 1701 West Court Street. Once you enter the parking lot look for the building with the round roof and enter through the glass doors that face the side of court street. Email jwallace@paragouldschools.net with any questions.
