Principal Appreciation Day – Honoring Our Outstanding Leaders in PSSD!!🎉🎉

Today, we proudly celebrate the exceptional principals of the Paris Special School District whose leadership, dedication, and compassion shape the foundation of our schools every single day.

To Mr. Chris Hudgins, Dr. Chip Gray, and Mr. Jason Scarbrough—thank you for the unwavering commitment you show to our students, staff, and community. Your ability to lead with integrity, support with kindness, and inspire through action does not go unnoticed.

Whether guiding students toward success, empowering teachers to grow, or facing challenges with resilience and calm, you each bring something unique and invaluable to our district. PSSD is stronger, brighter, and more unified because of the work you do.

On this Principal Appreciation Day, we extend our heartfelt gratitude and deep appreciation. Thank you for being the leaders our schools and students can always count on.

Thankful for our wonderful cafeteria staff! 🍎

Behind every great school day is a team making sure our students are fueled and ready — and today, we’re celebrating those amazing individuals in Paris Special School District! 💙

To our dedicated cafeteria staff: thank you for the early starts, the long hours, and the care you put into every meal you serve. You do so much more than prepare food — you create a warm, welcoming environment where students feel seen and supported.

Your kindness, consistency, and commitment make a difference in ways that reach far beyond the lunchroom. We are grateful for all you do to support our students and schools each and every day!

Join us in showing some love to our school lunch heroes!

📚 Our school library is truly its heart. Mrs. Jessica Homesley creates a space where everyone feels welcome, comfortable, and safe.

📚 Happy National School Librarian Day! 📚

This week, we proudly honor the incredible librarians who are the heart of our school. More than keepers of books, they are champions of curiosity, creativity, and lifelong learning. They help our students discover new worlds, build research skills, and find just the right story at just the right moment. They nurture a love for reading and support academic success in ways that reach far beyond the classroom.

Thank you to our librarians for everything you do. You make a difference—one book, one lesson, and one student at a time.

Let our librarians know how much you appreciate them this week:

Rhea - Katie Brannon
PES - Jessica Homesley
IMS - Jeanie Oliver
