The Thames Valley District School Board offers transportation for students living more than 1.6 km away from the school. Students may enter our school in Kindergarten or Grade 1.

Measures of Student Achievement & Success At Thames Valley
We believe that assessment and evaluation of student achievement are integral parts of the learning process. Information gathered through assessment and evaluation helps teachers to determine students' strengths and weaknesses in their achievement of the curriculum expectations. It also serves to guide teachers in adapting curriculum and instructional approaches to students' needs and in assessing the overall effectiveness of programs and classroom practices. A variety of methods are used to gauge student progress including: teacher observation, classroom tests, projects, and, other examples of student work. For more information on our school's provincial assessment results, visit the Education Quality and Accountability Office.
At PAFI, we have children with peanut/nut allergies, please refrain from sending/bringing products
containing peanuts/nuts and their substitutes (such as Wow Butter) to school.
