The Commission scolaire de la Pointe-de-l'Île (CSPÎ) was a francophone school board in Montreal, Quebec, Canada, based primarily in the city's east end. It served Montréal-Nord, Saint-Léonard, Anjou, and Rivière-des-Prairies–Pointe-aux-Trembles. It also served Montréal-Est, a municipality outside of the Montreal city limits."LÂCHE PAS!

Commission scolaire de la Pointe-de-l'Île (Pointe-de-l'Île school commission or school board), was created by the government of Quebec on July 1, 1998, as part of a general restructuring from school boards representing religious communities to those representing linguistic communities. The CSPI replaced the former Commission scolaire Jérôme-Le Royer while also incorporating some francophone schools from other commissions. There were 27,500 students enrolled in schools associated with the board at the time of its founding; by 2011, the number had grown to 35,000.Sue Montgomery, "Smooth start for French schools," Montreal Gazette, 28 August 1998, A4; Historique et profil de la CSPI , Commission scolaire de la Pointe-de-l'Île, accessed 11 August 2011. The eastern portion of the former Montreal Catholic School Commission became a part of the CSPÎ.Lagacé, Roger. "L’école Calixa Lavallée: depuis plus de 40 ans à Montréal-Nord."

The commission was overseen by a group of elected school commissioners. Vincenzo Arciresi was the first chair of the commission and served in this capacity until his defeat by Miville Boudreault in the 2014 council election, the first in which the chair was directly elected."Un vent de fraîcheur s'amène à la CSPÎ", Progrès Saint-Leonard, 2 November 2014, accessed 9 May 2017.
It was replaced by the Centre de services scolaire de la Pointe-de-l'Île.
