We had so much fun during our visit with Beth and John! We can't wait to see you at the library in the fall! 📖📚
Parents: Please check your student's bookbags. Each student is coming home with a pamphlet of FREE activities happening this summer at the library. There is something for children of all ages and even adults. https://peoriapubliclibrary.org/











Thank you, Coach Becky for making physical activity a priority with our students!





Ms. Debbie's class is exploring this month’s STAR theme, “All About Bugs.” We enjoy reading stories that connect to the theme and spark curiosity.
Students are also working on the alphabet, beginning sounds, numbers, and number matching. While they focus on building their academic skills, they continue to enjoy their daily routines. Students are learning to play with friends, take turns, follow directions, and share with others.
Thank you Ms. Debbie for educating our children!








Thank you for being kind and patient with all of our students, every single day. You are always there for us when we need a good laugh.

Ms. Brenda has a support staff with a T.A. and a B.A. and together they have seen their students learn and grow. Ms. Brenda’s class does a weekly science experiment. They have also spent the year learning how to do laundry and showing students how to take the lunch count to the cafeteria all by themselves. This year they have gone on many field trips such as Peoria Zoo, Camp Big Sky, Blue Ridge Farm, and a Peoria Chiefs game.
Thank you for supporting our students!

🌟 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! 🍎🫶

Our students enjoyed fishing, a hay ride, a boat ride, arts and crafts, playing on the inclusive playground, and eating lunch outside. We learned about wetlands and got to watch turtles and geese swim. We also had some surprise cows greet us on our hayride!
We can't wait to visit again next year. :)










Today in honor of Staff Appreciation Week we want to shine our spotlight on Ms. Emily who teaches one of our kindergarten to 1st grade classrooms.
Ms. Emily along with her T.A., Ms. Maria have been busy this year. Throughout the year, Miss Emily's class has focused on building communication skills and independence. Through play and structured learning time, students have developed skills in turn taking, requesting, and being ready to learn. To celebrate the year and take the skills out into the community, they attended Access the Zoo day at Peoria Zoo.
Thank you for always being there for our students!









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!
