PHS Service Learners: Please check Classroom for outside hour opportunities! You need 10 hours for each semester.
Pana High School doors will open at 7:45am on August 16th. All student drivers should park in the NORTH LOT in front of the high school upon arrival. We will begin handing out schedules and issuing parking passes when the doors open. Students may access their schedules on Lumen in advance to avoid the lines. Students should be in attendance by 8:00am. If student schedules indicate a WIN period before 1st hour they should report to the WIN teacher after they have received their schedule and parking pass. Students who have not paid for their parking permit should bring the $10.00 fee with them on the 16th.
PJHS is excited to welcome back our students next week! To ensure smooth drop-offs and pick-ups, please review our new procedures for traffic around the junior high:
Attached is information on the arrival & dismissal procedures at Pana Elementary School. We are excited to begin the school year in a safe and organized manner!
**PreK Information on arrival & dismissal will be coming in the next couple of days. This information will be directly relayed to the parents of PreK students.

Please note: The Dates and Times document on the Back to School Page inadvertently listed August 16th, the first day of school, as a 45 minute early dismissal day. That is a mistake and has been corrected. We apologize for any confusion or inconvenience this may have caused.
