École des Pionniers (British Columbia)


École des Pionniers de Maillardville is a French first language school located in Port Coquitlam, British Columbia, Canada. It serves the French speaking population of the Metro Vancouver area.
The school was founded in 2000 and is located on the former Terry Fox Secondary School grounds. It incorporates classes formerly held at Millside Elementary, Como Lake Middle and Centennial Secondary School in Coquitlam. The school now has the IB Diploma Programme in French for 11th-12th graders, and has the MYP IB Programme for 7-10th graders. Not directly affiliated with École des Pionniers, but located within it and often a stepping stone to attending the school, is an independent non-profit francophone preschool called Prématernelle Les p'tits lutins.
In 2013 the provincial government announced plans to build a new $22.8 million facility for the school, which is expected to be completed in January 2018.. Retrieved 2013-11-07
