Have a great summer break! We can't wait to see you bright-eyed and ready to learn in August! Please schedule Doctor and Dentist appointments during the summer, so as not to disrupt the school year. Make sure to get your Sports Physical when you get the School Physical, so that students are ready for anything. Check out the Riverfront Farmers Market every Saturday morning for fresh foods, music, crafts, and other vendors. June 15-17 is the Steamboat Days Festival on the Peoria Riverfront. Enjoy carnival rides, food, and music. June 21 is the official First Day of Summer. How is it going so far? Make sure to visit your local branch of the Library to keep those brains in shape. Summer Reading participation can help! Read a new series or catch up on one you already started. Listen to an audio book if you are driving somewhere for vacation. June 24-25 is also the Olde English Faire at Wildlife Prairie Park. ICC and Bradley have some great summer classes and camps for kids. Peoria Park District has summer camps and classes to keep you active all break long!
