Dr. Seuss week kicked off with Pajama Day!


We’ve been talking about healthy bodies and healthy food. That means our yoga studio and fitness center is open for business!










This year, our district-wide focus is GO BIG BLUE, a theme that aligns with our Peotone High School vision and our Portrait of a Graduate. Each month, we spotlight one key aspect of GO BIG BLUE and celebrate the students and staff who truly exemplify it through our GO BIG BLUE Spotlight Recognition Program.
For January, our focus was "Lead with Integrity." This recognition honors someone who consistently does the right thing, even when no one is watching. They are honest, fair, and trustworthy, and they lead by example in all they do.

There was no snow on the ground, but at PEEP, we loved all our snow activities inside! ❄️☃️








Yesterday at our Teacher Institute Day, we launched our first Big Blue-U (University), featuring keynote speaker Eric Curts, a nationally recognized educational technology leader, who introduced key concepts around AI in education. Following the keynote, teachers participated in self-selected breakout sessions led by our own staff, showcasing the incredible expertise within our district. Sessions included Teaching with Primary Sources (Patty Heron), Instructional Tech Refresher (Brian Cann), Canva 101 (Amy Sadler), Planting Possibilities with Ag in the Classroom for K-5 (Abby and Dakota Cowger and FFA Student Leaders), Learners Never Stop Learning How to Read: The Importance of Read-Alouds and Explicit Reading Instruction (Lindsay O’Neill), CKLA Make & Take with Pausing Points (Amy Sadler & Sam Sexton), Dyslexia Basics and Simulation (Everyone Reads Illinois), and The “Gem in AI”(Eric Curts).
It was exciting to see this vision come alive as we learned and grew together, while tapping into the incredible expertise within our own district!
