Oki, Dadánast’áda, Âba Wathtec, Tânisi, Taanishi, Bonjour, Hello Parents and Caregivers,
Welcome Back from Spring Break
We are looking forward to welcoming students back on March 31. We hope that you had a wonderful break and had the opportunity to spend lots of time enjoying time with family and friends.
Parent-Engagement Survey
March 31st is the last day for parents to add their feedback for our parent engagement surveys. If you have not already done so, please take a few moments to answer a survey that informs our planning for the 2025-2026 school year. Information gathered through this survey helps to guide decision-making about school programming, resources, and engagement opportunities in the upcoming school year. Gaining a better understanding of student and parent experiences helps to drive continuous improvements for our school.
We remain committed to ensuring that your children have a welcoming, safe, caring, and respectful environment where they can learn and grow—and your feedback is a vital component of setting the stage! We strive to incorporate Indigenous ways of knowing, being, belonging, and doing into all aspects of your children's educational experiences at Piitoayis Family School and we are so grateful for your input into how we can continually improve. If you have any questions or need more information, please contact us.
