PAYNE ELEMENTARY – Paul Jones, Principal

Payne Elementary has had a wonderful start to the school year.  We have already reached the halfway point of our first nine weeks.  Our first quarter will end on October 15th, and we will begin to get into fall testing and the holiday season.  

Our annual Halloween Parade is tentatively scheduled for October 29th at 1:45 PM.  We expect this year’s parade to be spectacular, and the staff and students are already beginning to get excited!
