PCS Announces Community Partnership with Dreams to Reality Cakes

Peru Community Schools is excited to announce another strategic partnership that brings additional value to the community and district while making use of existing space.
The district has entered into an agreement with Mrs. Sandra Tossou, owner of Dreams to Reality Cakes, to lease the kitchen located in the former Peru Junior High on Daniel Street. This space, which has been largely unused, will now serve as a working kitchen for Dreams to Reality’s business operations.
This is not a retail location and there will be no storefront or customer traffic at the site. Instead, the kitchen will be used strictly for baking and production, putting unused space to work and providing commercial kitchen space to this well-established bakery.
This partnership will also offer our students access to workforce readiness skills while creating an additional revenue stream for the district.
“We are always looking for opportunities to support our community and be good stewards of our facilities,” Superintendent Trent McCormick shared. “This is a win for our students, our district, and a win for a local entrepreneur.”
Peru Community Schools looks forward to continuing to build strong community partnerships that benefit both students and the broader community.
