Open a window into your schools.
PPS's mission is to create a "window" into Pleasanton schools for sharing information on the many programs and activities that make up the remarkable educational experiences in our award-winning district. Our mission is to strengthen community ties, elevate communication and transparency between our schools and its stakeholders, and celebrate the character and achievements of our unique schools.
Positively Pleasanton Schools was formed by a group of educators from across the district who believe that an informed public is an empowered one. Working closely with Pleasanton stakeholders we can achieve the greatest results for our students, schools, and the community. The successes of our schools, students, and remarkable programs merit promotion and recognition. Although made up of Pleasanton teachers, PPS is not affiliated with any other organization and does not hold or promote any political or financial aim.

Our small team did manage to get a few finalists spots:

STANFORD, Calif. – On March 20, 2011, sixteen Pleasanton teams headed to Stanford for the annual Stanford Puzzle Hunt. The Puzzle Hunt started promptly at 9AM, leading Pleasanton students, who made up the majority of all Puzzle Hunt attendees, to rise early in the morning for the car trip to Stanford. The tournament began with an explanation of a sample problem by the Hunt coordinators, and then ended with a short skit. The skit was designed to give participants a glance at the theme of the Hunt; this year’s skit illustrated a scene from Ender’s Game.
STANFORD, CA – February 19, 2011 marked Amador Valley Math Team’s fourth year attending one of the largest math competitions in the United States. Twenty-two Pleasanton students made their way to Stanford University to attend the annual competition.
