Making Technology a Priority

Modern technology has become as crucial to the classroom as textbooks and chalkboards.  We at the PPS Foundation are working closely with District 150 leadership to determine where we can make smart investments in smarter classrooms. Supporters who share a passion for improved technology for our students are encouraged to join this effort by making a donation and designating it to "technology" today.
