Pauline Central is Building a Legacy - Celebrating our Amazing Teachers

Thank you to our Jaguar families for the many ways you recognizes and celebrated our amazing teachers! Our staff was overwhelmed by the outpouring of gifts and yummy treats provided during Teacher Appreciation Week. We are so very fortunate to have the support of our parent community!

Please Review Bus Expectations with your Child- Let's Finish Strong

We have had a recent increase in inappropriate behavior on the school bus. Bus drivers must be able to safely transport our students to and from their homes each day, and it is imperative that ALL students follow the expectations of the bus driver. Below is a graphic that outlines the expectations on the school bus. Please review these expectations with your child. If your child is unable to follow these expectations, please make other arrangements for their safe transport to and from school for the remainder of the school year.

Second Step Resource

Our staff continue to prioritize the social emotional learning for our students. Second Step programs are research-based, teacher-informed, and classroom-tested to promote the social-emotional development, safety, and well-being of children from Early Learning through Grade 8.


Your child participates in these lessons designed to help students have more positive attitudes toward themselves and others, show more positive social behaviors in school, and have fewer conduct problems. This results in greater school connectedness, which helps keep students safe and out of trouble.

Pauline Schools PTO Needs YOU!

Our PTO meets the first Tuesday of every month at 6:00 p.m. Everyone who is a parent of a student at Pauline South and Pauline Central is a member of PTO. We encourage anyone who would like to attend or participate in any way to contact our PTO president, Bailee Crawford at crawford_bailee@yahoo.com.
