Air Quality and School Operations

We are closely monitoring the Air Quality Health Index (AQHI) reported by Environment Canada, as conditions in our region may fluctuate in the coming days. We will be following the AQHI-recommended actions based on the level of air quality, and each school will continue to respond to changing conditions throughout the day to support the health and safety of students and staff. Please note, our HVAC systems are running continuously. All schools' air handling systems (HVAC) use MERV-13 filters, which are effective in capturing smoke particulates. For more information, we’ve shared a helpful resource from Vancouver Coastal Health.

Principal's Message

At Pemberton Secondary, our commitment remains strong to the values that guide our school community—Community, Purpose, and Respect.
 
These values are more than words; they shape how we learn, how we treat one another, and how we contribute to the world around us.
 
Community – Together, we create a supportive environment where every student feels a sense of belonging and connection.
Purpose – We encourage each learner to discover their passions, set goals, and take steps toward their future with confidence.
Respect – We hold ourselves and each other accountable to kindness, responsibility, and care in our classrooms, hallways, and beyond.
 
As we step into this year, we invite all students and families to carry these values with us, so that PSS continues to be a place where everyone feels seen, supported, and inspired.
 
We are excited for the year ahead and look forward to partnering with you to ensure every student has the opportunity to thrive. Thank you for your continued support in making PSS a strong and vibrant school community.
