Work-Based Learning also honored several students who found their “fire” for a vocation but need to pursue postsecondary training before continuing in their field. Cheyenne with the Tazewell County Health Department who will pursue Healthcare. Hannah was at Marquette Elementary with Ms. Underwood this year and will seek a position teaching blind children. Jocelyn with OSF Center for Health who experienced new paths in the healthcare field and discovered she wanted to start working to becoming an RN. And Carson who worked Dragon Tech Support this year and will pursue IT in the fall at ICC. We had 40 students out in the workforce this year. Seven are continuing in careers as diverse as art, business, animal science, automotive, health sciences, business, and the Military. The balance will go on to study astrophysics, construction, business, media, IT, government, healthcare, ministries, and education. I am honored to have helped in some way these students and could not be prouder of their achievement! #EFE320 #ILCTE #DRAGONPRIDE
The PCHS art department is excited to share our "Bison"-tennial with the world. Meet Frank the Dreamer! He is looking forward to sharing his thoughts and ideas with everyone.
🎓 Hey Seniors! 🎓
Time to give that cap and gown the spotlight it deserves – take it out of the package and hang it up to smooth out those wrinkles . This is your friendly reminder!
Graduation practice kicks off at 3:15 PM – we can’t wait to see you there!
Last night at our Work-Based Learning celebration we recognized students signing into their careers. I want to especially thank the McDaniels team, Morgan McDaniels, Mackenzie Taylor, and Jeff Wagnaar for signing Carter into their Art Department. Carter also runs his own t-shirt business, Owens’ Impressions. And I want to thank the Executive Director of the Dirksen Congressional Library, Tiffany White, for keeping Ethan as an intern this summer working in the archives before going to UIIC for Political Science. #EFE320 #ILCTE #DRAGONPRIDE
Last week Pekin FFA wrapped up their 4th annual FFA banquet. This senior group is a special one because they have been with program since it started 4 years ago (there is a picture attached for reference). This group is a huge reason for the programs success the past several years. They have passed on great leadership qualities for the members to follow in the future. Each of these seniors has a very bright future ahead of them, and we wish them the best.

Riley’s students at Wilson had a surprise “glow” on his last day of Work-Based Learning! Thank you to Ms. Vaughan and her class, for mentoring Riley all year!
