Geography 🌎 field trip fun 🤩
Today, Ms. Cosentine and Ms. Dunn’s classes took their learning on the road with a visit to the Field Museum in Chicago! From stunning African Fashion to towering dinosaurs and the dazzling Hall of Gems, students explored the world in unforgettable ways.
Of course, no road trip is complete without snacks—so we made a very important stop at Wally’s for treats… both on the way there AND back! 🍿🍫🍬🍭
So much fun, so many memories!

Congratulations to our Regional Champions!
The Kelly A. Helmick Art Scholarship fund was founded in 2024 to assist PCHS arts students in the cost of art education and vocational training in the field of visual arts including course fees, supplies, field trips, and other educational-related costs. Kelly found joy and satisfaction in expressing her creativity during her four years in art classes at Pekin Community High School. This scholarship is founded in hopes that it will allow students to continue to explore and express their artistic talents, just as Kelly did. We are thrilled to announce that this year's recipients are AJ Cunningham, Madison Hampton-Dodd and Addison Hiles.
Thanks to the Booster Club for supplying the girls' track team with lunch before our Sectional meet in Bloomington!
PCHS was lucky enough to hand out over $225,000 in scholarships! See the winners here
