Campuses across the Paulding County School District are set to get back to business in the coming days with school set to start in less than two weeks.

The first day back is Tuesday, August 1 for students across the district after a full week of in-service duty for educators ahead of the opening of the school year.

Open houses are coming up on Thursday, July 27 for all students across the district, but are being broken up in times based on the last names of students in alphabetical order.

Here’s a breakdown of when students and parents should attend the open houses coming up next Thursday:

Several Elementary School students from campuses around Paulding County went up to Rome ahead of the snowy weekend, and some came back as region champs representing their campuses.

The regional event held in Rome for the Georgia Student Technology Competition organized by Georgia’s RESA organization saw dozens of area schools compete against one another for a chance to move onto the state level on March 14.

The nearly two dozen students included youth from W.C. Abney Elementary School, Connie Dugan Elementary School, Hal Hutchens Elementary School, Sam D. Panter Elementary School, and Shelton Elementary School.

Students from Shelton Elementary took first place in three different categories during the event, along with Dugan Elementary students who took first in two categories, and a Panter Elementary team taking first in a category as well.

Those who won will get to compete on the state level next month in McDonough.
