The call will be from a Paducah Public Schools number and the caller will identify themselves as an employee of Paducah Public Schools. We are requesting this information for security purposes. The additional information will aid us in confirming the identity of designated friends or family members who come to pick your child up at school. If you are contacted and are unsure about giving us information over the phone, please contact us at 270-444-5600. We appreciate your cooperation as we work to make our schools safe and secure. Sincerely, Troy Brock, Director of Pupil Personnel Paducah Public Schools
