Paradise Intermediate
Welcome Back for the 2024-25 School Year
The Department of Education’s 2024-25 School Development Surveys are now available online for families to complete. We encourage all families to please complete the survey as the data collected will help our school plan and set goals for our school community for the upcoming school year. Please click on the Heading above.
We value your contributions and feedback to our school and would like to thank you in advance for taking the time to submit a response.
Our Survey link will remain open until Friday, April 4th.
PI uses the Safe Arrival app to report student absences
Families are encouraged to visit the NLESD Bus Portal for information regarding busing for the current school year.
Responsible Cell Phone Policy
During the school day, cell phones are not permitted to be out or used in the school building. They must remain in lockers while students are in the building (even during recess and lunch periods). This includes in the hallways and bathrooms during class and between classes. If students are found using their cell phones, they will be asked to put them in their locker.
Our school clothing store has reopened for new orders! If you would like to purchase PI merchandise, please click here. Order deadline is October 2nd.

Our fall fundraiser is ongoing and the jackpot is rising by the day! Our current prize pay out is $2500!! Get your tickets in by Tuesday, November 5th for your chance to win our early bird prize pack that includes a Gift Certificate for a free Hockey Summer Camp offered by Delaney's Hockey School valued at over $500.
