Paris School District

AAA Announced:

The Arkansas Department of Education, Division of Elementary and Secondary Education has approved the Paris School District Graduation Plan based on strict adherence of the following conditions. Graduation will be held 10:00 am Saturday, July 18, 2020 at the Football Stadium. The main gate will open at 8:30 am. Each graduating senior will be given six (6) tickets for admission, only a person with a ticket will be admitted to the stadium: No Exceptions. Families should enter as a group through the main entrance and sit together. Hand sanitizer stations will be available at the entrance and within the stadium. The bleacher area will be cleaned and disinfected before the ceremony. The home side bleachers will be marked for areas where the families must sit together, the areas will be six (6) feet apart. Every other row will be left open. The visitor bleachers will not be open. Every person over the age of ten (10) will be required to wear a mask for the entire graduation program. Students and faculty will be seated on the field at six (6) ft intervals. Once the ceremony is over guests are required to leave the stadium immediately, congregating within the stadium area is not allowed. The ceremony will be live streamed to a YouTube link to be published a week before the ceremony. It will also be recorded with each senior receiving a copy. There is no doubt that the last quarter of the 2019-20 school year has been unlike any other in recent memory. The seniors have been deprived of many events that are a part of the experience of the last year of school (sports, prom, competitions, etc.). As I have talked with several of them certainly they are disappointed but they have met the challenges head on with determination, grace and resilience. Unfortunately these seniors are learning the hard lesson early that life isn't fair and difficult circumstances will present in life that must be faced and overcome. They are doing this now and, speaking for the Paris School District we are extremely proud of them. We have no doubt that they will continue to meet their challenges and be successful. We are very happy that the graduation plan was approved and at least one rite of passage can happen with some normalcy. Wayne Fawcett Superintendent, Paris Schools
