Dear Paducah Community members, You are invited to click the link below to complete a survey of the Paducah Public School District. The survey was created by the University of Kentucky and Civil Rights Institute for community members. The goal of the survey is to continue to gather information on how to better serve students from the community’s perspective. The survey is anonymous, and no names are needed to complete the paper or online copy. There is also a paper copy of the survey that can be completed as well. We are in the process of providing five lockbox locations in the community where paper surveys can be submitted. We will have those locations available as soon as possible if you want to complete a paper survey. https://uky.az1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_3Isgnv85tp93ejI

Paducah Tilghman High School football has canceled its game with South Warren High School that was scheduled for Friday, September 17. The cancelation was necessary because many of the members of the football team and coaches have been quarantined or isolated due to exposure to COVID-19. “While we regret having to cancel our game with South Warren we feel that it is in the best interest of our players, coaches and their families, and we want to prioritize their safety,” said PTHS Athletic Director Deatrik Kinney. “The cancelation will give our players and coaches time to rest and recover before returning to competition against Henderson County on September 24.”
