Pana schools will be starting back tomorrow and we want to make sure that all students get to and from home as safe as possible
Meet the Teacher Night is tomorrow night (Wednesday, August 13th) from 5-6:30pm at Pana Elementary School! This is a great time to bring school supplies and get to know the staff with your student!

**This is also a wonderful time to take "1st Day Pictures" as there will not be an opportunity to do so in the drop-off line in the morning on Thursday. **

Parents and students can come at any time from 5 until 6:30pm as this is a come-and-go event!

See you soon!

Yearbooks are in! Class of 2025 GRADUATES can pick up their yearbooks from the PHS main office at any time! Current PHS students will receive their yearbooks during lunches either the first or second week of school. If you are not a recent graduate, please wait until yearbooks are distributed. :)
