We are excited to announce that we will be hosting the first presenter in our Peotone Parent Partnership Series on Thursday, May 15, from 6:00–8:00 p.m. The event will feature Detective Rich Wistocki from the Be Sure Consulting CyberSafe Schools Team. Detective Wistocki is a nationally recognized expert in High Technology Cyber Crimes and will share proactive strategies, expert insights, and invaluable resources for ensuring children's cyber safety.
We recognize that May is a busy month, but we believe this presentation is especially important as we head into summer—a time when students’ technology usage tends to increase. Resources will be shared for those who cannot attend, but we hope to see you there!
Please see the attached flyer for all the details.
This is a reminder to participate in the parent survey supplement, part of the Illinois 5Essentials Survey administration. A parent survey report will be generated if at least 20 percent of parents/guardians respond to the survey. While the parent data will not be made public, the parent report will be made available to the building and district administration and will enable them to make considerations based on the responses given by Peotone parents/guardians. Your participation in the parent survey will help us understand the conditions at your child’s school and guide improvement.
These research-based reports will be sent to schools and districts in May and will also be included in the State School Report Card, released statewide in the fall.
Please visit https://survey.5-essentials.org/Illinois/ to take the parent survey.
This Friday (March 14th) marks the end of our 3rd Quarter for Peotone Schools. As a reminder, we will be operating under a Common Plan schedule on Friday.
The 5Essentials Survey is NOW OPEN and will remain open until March 28th. We would appreciate it if you took the time to complete the Parent/Guardian Portion of the 5Essentials Survey. We need your help in getting 20% of our parents to respond to this survey for each school! You can access the survey by clicking on the following link: https://survey.5-essentials.org/Illinois/

We held our second District SPARK Day today, and staff members were SPARKING warmth and gratitude across Peotone 207u. It is so wonderful to have these days to connect through the entire district and show our appreciation for our staff and each other. Staff wore Spark Shirts or anything orange and visited the lounge to complete the Cups of Gratitude Activity. They enjoyed coffee, cocoa, and cookies. Staff had a chance to earn raffle tickets throughout the day for special raffle prizes. Our SPARK Survey was This or That: Winter Edition. See the Staff SPARK Survey Results below! A huge thank you to the Peotone Education Foundation for donating the raffle prizes and treats for this SPARK Day!
