PRSD Schools Recognize Veterans’ Week

In recognition of Veterans' Week and Remembrance Day, Peace River School Division (PRSD) schools pay tribute to those who have served and are currently serving our country in the cause of freedom and peace. Many of the PRSD schools are including acknowledging the contributions of our Indigenous veterans as a part of Remembrance Day Ceremonies. Moments of silence, school ceremonies, classroom activities and student participation in essays and poems are ways that schools are recognizing Veterans' Week. 


Please note there is no school on Thursday, November 11, 2021 in honour of Remembrance Day and on Friday, November 12, 2021, a non-operational day. Classes resume on Monday, November 15, 2021.

PRSD thanks students, staff, parents and community members for their involvement in this very important week of remembrance. In-person school ceremonies will be conditional on Covid-19 measures that are in place at the time of the ceremonies. Unfortunately, we are not able to invite the public to the ceremonies.
