The 'New' Face of Pioneer!

The 2013-2014 school year is off to a fabulous start!  We are excited to announce we have acquired 40+ iPads for our staff and students to use in accessing the world of opportunities available  through technology!  Mrs. Schnitzmeier and myself continue to fundraise in order to supplement and enhance our technological possibilities for our students.
The iPads have been wonderful for me to use in STAR, MAP, and AR testing.  We can now test 20 students at a time using these incredibly effective and efficient devices.  The students absolutely 'love' the interactive and user-friendly iPads as they explore the educational world discovering a myriad of new options!
I have planned, with the generous support and encouragement of our PTA, many great family events and activities for this year.  We will have the fall and spring Barnes & Noble fundraiser with lots of prizes, the annual Chili Cook-Off, the annual Pancake Breakfast, possibly another great Christmas Event,  and the annual Box Social event!  So many great activities and events to share!  I hope to see everyone there!
Pioneer is a fantastic school and I am so excited to be a part of this school and community!  Stop in and visit anytime!
