PIONEER FAMILIES!
The Building Site & Sinking Fund is a way to directly invest in PPS by ensuring all possible dollars are available for teaching and learning. Renewal of the Building Site and Sinking Fund would provide specific dollars for repairs, mechanical upgrades, security and more.

**IMPORTANT DISMISSAL ANNOUNCEMENT**
The closure at Centre Ave and Moorsbride Rd is starting to clear up; however, we are unsure of what the status will be at school dismissal. Please expect delays during pick-up. For best results, families may want to use Romence Road to turn south on Moorsbridge Road if possible.
