[edit] Academic
P.R.D.G. was well-known in the K-W region for its extremely high standards of excellence. They were also known for their Junior girls volley ball team, who has participated to the provincial tournament for several years. This school is currently on a transition to "Baccalaureat International", that is it wants to reach universal academic standards. It is not certain it will do so. Despite the general opinion displayed above, some students do hold themselves to a higher standard. However the overwhelming majority do not.
[edit] Charity Work
Beyond academic achievement, PRDG has done quite a bit of charity work. Every student has the responsibility to contribute to society. Like many other organizations in the K-W area, the school is well known for its volunteer and charity work. Although the province does require that students complete community hours so the school itself cannot necessarily be credited.
