🌟 Happy Teacher Appreciation Week! 🌟
This week, we’re celebrating the heart and soul of our schools—our incredible teachers!
📢 Here's what YOU can do
1. Encourage your kids to write a note, draw a picture, or simply say “thank you” to their teacher this week.
2. Let’s flood this feed with gratitude, appreciation, and love for the educators who make a difference every day. Tag your school and your favorite teacher in the comments and share a memory or a "thank you" message! 🍎🫶

What an incredible celebration of diversity! The 3rd Annual Multicultural Fair brought together teachers from 17 different countries to share their vibrant cultures with students, families, and the Peoria community. Peoria Public Schools proudly participates in the J-1 Visa program, welcoming global talent to enrich our classrooms and foster cultural exchange. Take a look back at this unforgettable event!
