HUGE shout out to Mrs. Mullen and our 5th graders for collaborating on their 1st Zoom meeting this morning! Way to represent that Paxton Tiger strength, determination and teamwork!! Miss you all so much!
Good morning Paxton Tigers! Thank you for being such awesome students and parents during the student pick up day. It was great seeing all of you and really hard to not give you a high-five, fist pump or hug. This has definitely been hard and new for all of us, but Tigers are known for their toughness, so hang in there. If you need anything, please email me or call the school. Our school community is strong. Stay Tough Tigers!!!
Mr. Dack
Dear Paxton Families,
Hard to believe we have been out of school for a week and we have two more weeks to go. Paxton teachers have been working hard to provide meaningful education for students while at home and they will be sending that home soon or you will pick it up on Monday. Students take it easy on your parents because this is new for them as well and they need your support. Parents we are here for you also, so please don't hesitate to reach out to us whenever you need something. I am optimistic that more positives than negatives will be the result of all this and our school community will only be stronger for it. You are constantly on our minds and We Miss You! Go Tigers! Mr. Dack
