State Highway 19 has been down to one lane in both directions in front of the Pauls Valley Elementary School as the Oklahoma Department of Transportation has been working to lengthen the turn lane and widen the turn median in front of the school. ODOT officials said the project is scheduled to be completed before school begins on August 12.
Students across Garvin County will be heading back to the classroom starting next week. The schedule of back-to-school events for each district is as follows:
Elmore City-Pernell:
Aug. 10 - Meet the Teacher Night at the elementary school begins at 6 p.m.; middle school/high school begins at 6:30 p.m. The Elmore City Chamber of Commerce will host an ice cream social downtown beginning at 7 pm.
