Wolf Pup Name Winners!

Students at Paw Paw Early Elementary and Paw Paw Later Elementary learned the names of the two red wolf pup mascots. The name Rufus was chosen for the male pup, and Rosy for the female pup.


The names were submitted as part of a contest for elementary-aged students in Paw Paw schools, and the winners of the contest were Ava Martin at the Later Elementary, and Isabella Holbrook and Corbin Anderson at the Early Elementary.

Pack Rooms

After seeing all our students return to school we have made the decision to eliminate pack rooms for the first semester. All families affected by the decision have received phone calls as to how we will transition students to new classrooms. At the end of the semester if we need to add our pack rooms back to accommodate more face to face students we will determine that need at that time. Thank you for being so supportive as we navigate what is safe and best for students and staff.

Drop Off and Pick Up

We need your help. Our drop off lane is not for parking. This lane is for drop and go only. If you get out of the car to walk your child up to the school, you will need to find a marked parking space. This is the same process you will need to follow at the end of the day. Please do not create your own parking spaces. This is for the safety of the students. Thank you for understanding!
