New Teacher Orientation 2019

As the teachers at Paxton began their first week back at school, they were greeted like movie stars. They were given a delicious breakfast prepared by the lunch room staff and walked the red carpet to the auditoium, where they began their day with an introduction to Principal Brent Jones and a message from Superintendent Hughes. Mr. Jones introduced the faculty and staff to the theme for the new year: "Bring our Best!" The Paxton family is looking forward to another EPIC year. Submitted by Kalli McMillan
