Your Impact: Directly funding tech upgrades and inclusive education supports.
Every Bit Counts: Whether it’s $10 or $100, your gift makes a tangible difference.
Our Promise: 100% of proceeds go towards enriching student life.
Note: All expenditures are transparently approved by the PAC.
The PAC funds are here to empower our school community. We are looking for innovative proposals that benefit a wide range of students. Review the funding criteria and submit your request for the next PAC meeting.
We say "Your" because EVERY parent/guardian of a PGSS student is automatically a member of the PGSS PAC.
The PGSS PAC is a way to learn about our student's experiences at PGSS, and to share our ideas, suggestions and curiosities.
We are all united in the learning journey of PGSS students, so let's work together to give them every opportunity for an enjoyable, engaged, exciting secondary school education.
