PSF provided "Initiative Grants" to many Pettisville teachers during the school year.

Capital Drive II   2009-12 

The second capital drive constructed a $1,000,000+ Atrium joining the new 2011 Pettisville School with the 1994 PSF addition to the original school. 

Atrium highlights include:

• A replication of the 1929 school entrance.

• The “PETTISVILLE SCHOOL” masthead and “1929” are originals from the 1929 building. This masthead is replicated throughout the new building. 

• Solid walnut is from the tree that stood in the playground at the end of the basketball court.

• The rosettes on the walkway are from the front of the 1929 building.

• A Walkway joins the second floor with the north wing study hall/computer labs.

• The Atrium has a college student union look. The furniture was funded by the Meister Fund.

• The Atrium features three video screens.

• All class pictures are displayed in “The Gallery,” the hall east of the JH gym.

Atrium is 2,055 Square Feet     -     West Vestibule  is 83 Square Feet     -     Second Floor Walkway is 704 Square Feet

Heritage Park :

• Heritage Park is west of the Atrium.

• The chandelier and sconces were created by blacksmith Mike Bendele.

• The chandelier features lighting globes from the 1929 building.

• Pedestals at the entrance display the names of the 272 donors to the Atrium.

• A clock is mounted on the south base and the school bell, which was displayed in the front lawn for many years, is mounted on the other base.

• One bench in Heritage Park was purchased by 2010-11 fourth graders in memory of classmate Abigail Yoder.
