ANOTHER COMPLETED PROJECT!!!
🎉 PCHS CLASS OF 1978! 🎉
Our 65th Birthday Gathering is just around the corner—Saturday, August 23, 2025, at 5:00 PM!
📍 We’re starting at Rhythm & Brews – 513 Court St. in downtown Pekin
🍻 Grab a drink, slap on a name tag, and get ready to stroll Court Street with stops at Whiskey Taco, Yesterday’s, and Maquet’s Rail House.
🌮🍕 Food trucks will be out, and
🎶 Revel In Red takes the stage that night as part of the Downtown Concert Series!
This is a public event, so all PCHS Class of ’78 grads are welcome—and so are other Pekin alums from any other class as well as other friends!

The PCHS GAPP exchange students had a good flight back home from Germany on Friday. A big Danke! to all of the PCHS students who participated in the program and to their families for supporting this fantastic program. A big Danke! also goes to the PCHS administration and school board, Miss Kahl, and Jay, our bus driver, for helping to make this exchange a success. Travel changes lives and broadens horizons. A lot of new and lasting friendships have fostered through this program since 1988.
The PCHS GAPP students and their exchange partners spent their last full day in Germany in the beautiful town of Tübingen. The weather was perfect
The PCHS GAPP students and their exchange partners took a short hike the Platten Forest, near Backnang today. That was followed up by a cookout in the school garden.

The PCHS GAPP students and their exchange partners visited Ludwigsburg Palace today. It is one of the largest palaces in Europe
Calling all amateur sleuths: We have a PCHS Summer Mystery! Nestled away in a storage area, we found this work of modern art. We have managed to piece together that it used to hang in the faculty lounge at East Campus, and it appears to be from a world-renowned American artist named Conrad Marca-Relli (1913-2000). However, that is all we know. We would love to know this piece of art's lineage: How did it get here? When did we acquire it? Did someone own it and donate it to the school? Did Marca-Relli have a connection to PCHS? Was it ever displayed anywhere other than East Campus?
If you or someone you know has information about this artwork, we would love to hear from you! Please email smartin@pekinhigh.net with any information.

The cross country team spent some time cleaning up the school campus & park today! A "trash run" is our annual tradition after the 4th of July festivities. Way to go, Dragons!
It was a cool, rainy day in Backnang, so PCHS GAPP students and their partners started on a screen print t-shirt project, led by Frau Dahme
A great time was had by all of the PCHS GAPP students and their exchange partners on Schwäbisch Hall and at the Freiland Open Air Museum
A great time was had by all of PCHS GAPP students and their exchange partners at the Mercedes-Benz Museum in Stuttgart today. They are going to visit Schwäbisch Hall, a quaint town that dates back to the Middle Ages tomorrow.
Miss Kahl was invited by her host teacher to a reception for German-American exchange programs. She got to meet Ambassador Robert Scott, the American consulate from Frankfurt, and the public diplomacy chief for the US consulate. She also got to meet the mayor of Stuttgart and several visiting American university professors. Continuing to maintain the bridges that have been built!
The PCHS GAPP exchange students had a great day. It started off with a question and answer in a bilingual class, where they met even more new friends. After that, most of students participated in a P.E. class and practiced throwing a javelin. Then, they went on a tour of Backnang. After the tour, they all enjoyed an ice cream. It has been really hot, so the last two day were early out heat schedule days. There is no air conditioning at the exchange school
