Pelican Falls First Nations High School Prom & Awards Ceremony

Pelican Falls First Nations High School (PFFNHS) students were honoured for their academic and athletic accomplishments at this year’s Prom & Awards Ceremony held at PFFNHS on April 9.
PFFNHS Principal Darrin Head shared, “Awards Night/Prom Night is a highlight of our school year at PFFNHS. This night provides our staff the opportunity to recognize and celebrate both the academic and athletic accomplishments of our students. More importantly, it provides our students the opportunity to celebrate each other. It is truly heartwarming to witness students being genuinely happy and cheering loudly for their peers, when their names are announced as award winners. It is these bonds and these memories that our students will carry with them long after they take their final walk through the halls of PFFNHS. We are all thankful for the opportunity to be a part of this.”
