Paducah Tilghman Naval Junior ROTC (NJROTC) conducted the annual Area Manager’s Inspection on November 20 culminating with a Pass-in-Review Ceremony in the Dinning Gymnasium before assembled family and friends.
This year Commander Robinson, the Area 14 Manager, conducted the inspection of the cadets and was the Guest of Honor for the Pass-in-Review Ceremony.
The cadets and drill teams performed in exemplary fashion and the inspection was a great success due to the hard work of the cadets and the outstanding support and flexibility of the faculty at PTHS.

A Celebration of Life service for long-time band director Douglas Van Fleet will be held this Saturday, November 23rd 2024 at the Paducah Tilghman Auditorium and the Doug Van Fleet Band Room from 1-3pm.
Mr. Van Fleet was more than just a teacher; he was a maestro who inspired generations of musicians. With unwavering dedication, Mr. Van Fleet nurtured talent, instilled discipline, and fostered a love for music that extended far beyond the walls of Paducah Public Schools. His legacy will live on in the musicians, band instructors and music aficionados who learned and performed music under his instruction.
Memorial contributions may be made in his honor to the Paducah Tilghman Band and Orchestra programs.


Please help the STAY Program help you and our district by filling out this housing survey. We look forward to hearing from you! https://bit.ly/3Oj0Zd6
