Pioneer Parent News
Picture Day: Thursday, Sept. 14th
You will receive an email from Lifetouch with more information, including purchasing directions.
As we prepare to celebrate 50 Years of Portage West on Wednesday, September 27th, we are trying to collect as many memories and experiences as possible of former Pioneers; students and teachers. Feel free to share and/or complete these few questions!
Reminders:
- Students need to bring their Chromebooks fully charged each day. (Especially important this week during Fastbridge Screening.)
- Students are required to have their ID on their person at all times during the school day. IDs are required at Lunch and to check out materials in the Library. Students get one free replacement ID. After that, it will be a $5 charge.
- Tardies begin on Monday, September 11th. Everyone is doing a great job mastering their locker and the fastest way to class. If your student needs assistance this week, please have them stop by the office.

Winston is having a great time so far at his comfort dog training! He had a visit from his home family last week and was excited to see them. He is learning skills to be an even more loving and comforting dog than he already is. He also loves jumping around in the water and playing with his brother, who is being trained there as well. We are so excited with Winston’s progress and look forward to having him later this school year.
We are asking our Pioneer community to help us pay for the cost of the extensive training program he is receiving now as well as the ongoing needs that come with a growing puppy. At this time, we need to raise $8,500 to cover the purchase of Winston and his training costs. If you would like to contribute, feel free to click the link below!
