Peotone CUSD 207u Strategic Planning Feedback
Thank you to the 140+ individuals who have already shared their feedback! Your voice matters, and we want to continue hearing from as many members of our community as possible.
As we navigate this new school year - including navigating our new building configurations and space planning - our primary focus is to listen, learn, and lead with complete transparency. Every decision that our District makes will be driven by what best serves our students and stakeholders. To ensure our future vision reflects the values of everyone in our community, we are launching a process to create the Blue Devil Blueprint; a strategic plan to guide the decisions made by our Board of Education and administrative team. Your voice is the most critical element of this plan.
Please take a few minutes to complete our Blue Devil Blueprint survey linked here- https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfaeSdoMLIylXMjbM0vSSXhVwax1zHA5xON9GmG3vK2shrd8w/viewform
Your honest feedback regarding our academic programs, buildings and facilities, operations, and communication will serve as a foundation for years to come. We are also looking for community volunteers to participate in committees regarding the future path of the District. These committees are:
Blue Devil Blueprint Steering Committee: to participate in and oversee the creation of the new strategic plan
Future Configuration Committee: to discuss the current grade level configuration, building usage, and future options
Citizens Finance Committee: to learn more about and give feedback on the financial position of the District, its operations, and future planning considerations
Any community member is welcome to complete the survey or volunteer to participate on the committees.

This year, our district-wide focus is GO BIG BLUE, a theme that aligns with our Peotone High School vision and our Portrait of a Graduate. Each month, we spotlight one key aspect of GO BIG BLUE and celebrate the students and staff who truly exemplify it through our GO BIG BLUE Spotlight Recognition Program.
For February, our focus was "Unite with Respect." This recognition honors someone who treats everyone kindly. They listen and include others. This person shows that they care about how people are treated—no matter who they are..

Yesterday at our Teacher Institute Day, we launched our first Big Blue-U (University), featuring keynote speaker Eric Curts, a nationally recognized educational technology leader, who introduced key concepts around AI in education. Following the keynote, teachers participated in self-selected breakout sessions led by our own staff, showcasing the incredible expertise within our district. Sessions included Teaching with Primary Sources (Patty Heron), Instructional Tech Refresher (Brian Cann), Canva 101 (Amy Sadler), Planting Possibilities with Ag in the Classroom for K-5 (Abby and Dakota Cowger and FFA Student Leaders), Learners Never Stop Learning How to Read: The Importance of Read-Alouds and Explicit Reading Instruction (Lindsay O’Neill), CKLA Make & Take with Pausing Points (Amy Sadler & Sam Sexton), Dyslexia Basics and Simulation (Everyone Reads Illinois), and The “Gem in AI”(Eric Curts).
It was exciting to see this vision come alive as we learned and grew together, while tapping into the incredible expertise within our own district!

For November, our focus was "GROW AS A CRITICAL THINKER" - recognizing someone who thinks things through and solves problems in smart ways. They ask great questions, try new ideas, and aren’t afraid to think differently to figure things out.
We are proud to recognize the following students for exemplifying “Grow as a Critical Thinker!" They were recognized at the Board Meeting last night.
