    Community use of the school

    Nottawasaga Pines currently is accommodating the Essa Library Angus Branch which the school shares with Essa Township. Because of this partnership, students have the opportunity to come in at any time during the day and use it much like a normal school library. Since the school and the public library both have ownership, the library has increased materials, and a larger facility. The local Ontario Provincial Police detachment is also found within the same building, although it does have its own separate entrance.
