Back-to-School Backpack Event sponsored by Will County ROE
Due to the recent storms, the venue for our Back-to-School Backpack Event on July 31, 2026, has changed. The event will now take place at Crete-Monee High School, 1515 W. Exchange Street, Crete, IL, located near the north end of the parking lot, close to the football field.
The event will still run from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. as originally planned. Please note that the event will now be held outdoors, so we encourage attendees to come prepared for the weather.
Unfortunately, we are no longer able to provide the JET DENTAL service at this event. We appreciate your flexibility and look forward to seeing you there.
Thank you for your understanding, and we look forward to a wonderful event supporting our students and families as they prepare for the new school year.

Peotone CUSD 207u Strategic Planning Feedback
Thank you to the 140+ individuals who have already shared their feedback! Your voice matters, and we want to continue hearing from as many members of our community as possible.
As we navigate this new school year - including navigating our new building configurations and space planning - our primary focus is to listen, learn, and lead with complete transparency. Every decision that our District makes will be driven by what best serves our students and stakeholders. To ensure our future vision reflects the values of everyone in our community, we are launching a process to create the Blue Devil Blueprint; a strategic plan to guide the decisions made by our Board of Education and administrative team. Your voice is the most critical element of this plan.
Please take a few minutes to complete our Blue Devil Blueprint survey linked here- https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfaeSdoMLIylXMjbM0vSSXhVwax1zHA5xON9GmG3vK2shrd8w/viewform
Your honest feedback regarding our academic programs, buildings and facilities, operations, and communication will serve as a foundation for years to come. We are also looking for community volunteers to participate in committees regarding the future path of the District. These committees are:
Blue Devil Blueprint Steering Committee: to participate in and oversee the creation of the new strategic plan
Future Configuration Committee: to discuss the current grade level configuration, building usage, and future options
Citizens Finance Committee: to learn more about and give feedback on the financial position of the District, its operations, and future planning considerations
Any community member is welcome to complete the survey or volunteer to participate on the committees.

Thank you for making us feel so loved all week long! ✈️🌎💙
Beautiful day to kick off our week at PEEP!

Dr. Cohen joins us from Naperville Community Unit School District 203, where he serves as the Deputy Superintendent for High Schools. With a Doctorate in Education from Loyola University Chicago and a career spanning 27 years in Illinois public schools, Dr. Cohen comes to Peotone with experience in strategic planning and academic innovation.
Dr. Cohen spent much of his career in Lincoln-Way High School District 210, beginning as a science teacher and rising to the level of Principal of Lincoln-Way North High School. Later as the Superintendent in Mokena 159, he facilitated a comprehensive 5-year Strategic Plan and led the schools to significantly higher levels of academic performance. Dr. Cohen has significant experience with academic innovation, Human Resources administration, and leading the implementation of technology initiatives. We are confident that his experience has prepared him to lead Peotone CUSD 207U with a focus on both our immediate needs and our long-term vision.
