Kate and Janelle - Star Witness by Neko Case (in P.C.V.S. stairwell)

In September 2011, the Administrative Review Committee (ARC) of the Kawartha Pine Ridge District School Board (KPRDSB) voted to close P.C.V.S. One of the oldest high schools in Canada and the only downtown school in Peterborough, P.C.V.S. is a vital part of the downtown core. It is impossible to quantify the devastating impact the closure of this unique arts focused high school could have on generations of future students in Peterborough. Please join the hundreds of community members and voices that truly believe Peterborough needs P.C.V.S.
