As always, Dragons keep pretty busy, and this January is no exception! Mark your calendars for these important dates, and be sure to follow us on social media to get more up-to-the-minute information. 

Academics
Each Wednesday, Pekin Community High School will continue to run on a Late Start schedule.

It’s already time to think about next school year! Throughout the month of January, all rising sophomore through senior students will be pulled during their Advisories to select their courses for the next school year. 

Athletics and Extracurricular
Thank you for your continued support of our Dragon athletics. This January, many of our student athletes continue to compete, including our Boys Swimming & Diving teams, Girls and Boys Wrestling teams, and Girls and Boys Basketball teams.

The halls, classrooms, and meeting spaces are always a-buzz at Pekin High, including after-school when our student clubs, such as Dungeons & Dragons, Game Club, Creative Writing, and Art Club meet. Students should check the announcements or with their teachers and club sponsors to receive club schedule information.
