We’re so proud to celebrate Pekin High School graduate and former Work-Based Learning student Carter Owen on the ribbon-cutting and grand opening of his new business, Owen’s Imprints! 👏
It’s inspiring to see our students take the skills, experiences, and confidence they gained through Work-Based Learning and turn them into their own future. Congratulations, Carter! We can’t wait to see where your entrepreneurial journey takes you!

The PCHS Counseling Office will be hosting FAFSA completion nights on October 8th and February 17th at 6pm in the Dragon Commons. All students, regardless of attending a 4-yr, 2-yr, or vocational/trade school will need to complete the FAFSA or the 2027 Opt Out Portal. Both parents and students will need to create an FSA ID prior to the event. Please do so by going to https://studentaid.gov/fsa-id/create-account/launch. These workshops will be a great opportunity to work on your student's FAFSA while having experts around to answer any questions that may come up. We hope to see you there!
