Calling All Invested Parents!!! The first school council meeting of the 2014-15 school year is this coming Tuesday September 30th from 6:30 - 7:30. Come out and learn about the exciting events and activities happening in the Panther environment. We are looking for your interest and support only - there is NO FUNDRAISING INVOLVED in our council.
Research consistently shows that when parents are interested and engaged in the learning that is taking place, their students are more engaged as well. We all know it takes a village to raise and support a child and we hope to work together to offer our students the very best experience possible at Prince Edward Collegiate Institute. We look forward to meeting many new members and seeing returning members on Tuesday evening! Please contact Darren McFarlane (Principal) at This email address is being protected from spambots.

Quotes
“Celebrating the end of the school year in June is a decades-old tradition and the COVID-19 isn’t stopping us from making that happen! The sense of community—and family—in Prince Edward County is what keeps everyone connected and together. This partnership with 99.3 County FM is another example of the HPEDSB helping students and families to feel part of our HPEschools family. We appreciate the efforts and radio time of 99.3 County FM to showcase the students of Hastings and Prince Edward District School Board. Congratulations to each of them!” – Sean Monteith, Director of Education
“At 99.3 County FM, our volunteers were eager to do something significant to celebrate the students. It doesn’t matter the grade they’re graduating from, there are so many emotions for the students and families as the school year concludes. We are grateful to the Prince Edward County elementary schools for allowing us to be a part of the celebrations. By broadcasting at 99.3 FM and streaming the event (www.993countyfm.ca) we hope students and families from all grades will share in the joy of these PEC Grade 8 students.” – Craig Mills, Station General Manager
