Peirce Pride

Dear Peirce Families,

A special "Thank You" is in order for our local veterans that spent the morning with us on Veteran's Day. Each provided valuable insight as to their experience serving the country and our students and staff benefited from the program-Thank you!

This week, our counselors are working to coordinate the Parent-Team Conference schedule for families that completed the request form. Counselors will reach out through email prior to the end of the day on Friday, November 22.

Peirce Community Cares are collecting cleaning and personal hygiene products from now until Friday, November 22. Collection boxes are located in the front lobby. All items in the drive will be delivered to local West Chester families.

Winter sports at Peirce will start at different times depending on the specific sport and grade level. Please see the start dates/tryout dates and contact information for each sport. If a student has already played a Peirce sport this year, your student only needs to submit a Section PIAA recertification (by a parent/guardian). If this is the first Peirce sport this year, a full PIAA Physical will be required prior to starting the season. Please see the directions to register through family ID below. You may also access family I.D. by clicking here.
