English department spirit day!
It's such an awesome feeling to have our students back in the building! Students in Ms. Blievernicht's class are having a great time playing "I have, who has?"
August 23, 2023
Peotone Parents & Families,
We are very excited to be welcoming a guest speaker, Dr. Don Parker, to present to our 3rd-12th grade students and staff on Monday, August 28th. Dr. Parker is a former administrator who has focused his career on creating positive school climates, building relationships, and increasing resiliency to support student achievement. We are looking forward to his message on Monday.
Dr. Parker will be meeting with our students in three separate groups:
3rd-5th Grade – 8:45-9:45
9th-12th Grade – 10:00-11:00
6th-8th Grade – 1:15-2:15
All presentations will be held in the Peotone High School gymnasium. 3rd-8th grade students will be transferred to and from the high school for the presentation.
Due to the excessive heat and humidity this week, the dismissal times for all Peotone Schools have been changed from a Common Plan release to a SIP Day dismissal. SIP Day dismissals will be in place this Wednesday (8/23), Thursday (8/24), and Friday (8/25).
Due to an AT&T outage, all Peotone Schools are without internet and are unable to receive phone calls at this time (8/18). AT&T is aware of the issue and is looking to have it fixed as soon as possible. We apologize for the inconvenience.
