					<description><![CDATA[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.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Peru Community Schools has selected Riley Conner to fill the vacant board seat following the resignation of Dr. Gregory Quin earlier this month.
The Board of School Trustees voted 6-0 to approve the appointment during its April 20 meeting, following a thorough review process. The vacancy, representing Erie Township, drew several strong candidates. Board members carefully reviewed applications and engaged in thoughtful discussion before making their final decision.
Mr. Conner is a lifelong resident of Miami County and brings a professional background in information technology. He also has experience working with school districts, including Logansport and Maconaquah, providing him with a solid understanding of educational systems and operations.
“I am committed to supporting both student success and the educators who serve them. Serving on the board [will] allow me to once again contribute meaningfully to education and the long-term success of our community,” said Mr. Conner. Peru Community Schools looks forward to Mr. Conner’s service and contributions as the district continues its work on behalf of students, staff, and the community.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Peru, IN- Peru Community Schools has entered into an agreement with Maconaquah Schools to share their district Technology Director, Chris Percival. The move comes amidst increasing financial pressure on schools across the state on the heels of Indiana’s SEA 1 which drastically reduced funding for public schools. This new agreement allows both districts to reduce expenses and retain highly qualified staff. “By partnering with Peru Community Schools, we are maximizing Chris Percival’s talents and creating efficiencies that ultimately benefit students in both districts,” said Craig Jernagan, Maconaquah Superintendent.
Mr. Percival’s  years of experience successfully leading a tech team made him a clear choice to replace outgoing Peru Tech Director, Ben Burris, who has taken a job closer to his home. Peru Superintendent Trent McCormick said “We are pleased to have Mr. Percival join team PCS. Our district’s technology has been completely upgraded over the last year, from servers to laptops, and we are ready to take the next step. We are particularly excited with Mr. Percival’s experience building student tech teams. Peru is looking forward to engaging students interested in computers and technology through work-based learning.”
Both Peru and Maconaquah School boards have approved the arrangement. Mr. Percival is slated to being at PCS on March 1st.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Peru Community Schools is thrilled to announce that the 2025 AP Art and Design Digital Exhibition is now live https://apartanddesign.collegeboard.org/2025-ap-art-and-design-exhibit featuring one of our talented students, Johuan Antunez.
Peru Jr/Sr High School Art Department, under the direction of Mike Applegate, had 100% of AP Art students pass the exam this year. This marks the 10th consecutive year for that milestone. Students from the program regularly receive national recognition for their outstanding work.
This exhibition showcases 51 high school artists from 27 states and five countries, selected from over 82,000 portfolios submitted for the 2025 AP Art and Design Exam. These students’ images represent exceptional examples of original art grounded in personal ideas and experiences. The exhibition highlights the rigor and excellence of the AP Art and Design portfolio and serves as a valuable teaching tool for educators and students worldwide. Last year’s exhibition drew more than 250,000 views, underscoring its popularity as a global platform for viewing high school student art.
Participating in AP Art and Design involves a comprehensive process guided by observation, research, experimentation, discussion, critical analysis, and reflection. Students document their ideas and practices to demonstrate conceptual and technical development through inquiry-based artmaking. At the end of the year-long course, they submit portfolios for evaluation that include artworks, process documentation, and written information. These portfolios are assessed for the skillful synthesis of materials, processes, and ideas, as well as evidence of sustained investigation through practice, experimentation, and revision
“College Board is proud to present the 2025 AP Art and Design Exhibition, a celebration of student imagination, inquiry, and innovation,” said Rebecca Stone-Danahy, Director of AP Art and Design. “The works in this exhibition highlight how students use art and design to express ideas, deepen understanding, and connect with others across cultures and communities.”
“AP Art and Design students continue to demonstrate remarkable creativity and curiosity,” added Trevor Packer, Head of the AP Program. “This exhibition features exceptional art works reflecting the depth of inquiry and artmaking central to AP Drawing, AP 3-D Art and Design, and AP 2-D Art and Design. Guided by passionate art educators and supported by school leaders, these students use art and design to explore ideas, tell stories, and expand the ways we understand and engage with the world.”
The AP Art and Design program, established in 1972, has grown from about 4,500 students in 1978 to more than 80,000 participants annually. Research shows that AP students are better prepared for college, and those who earn scores of 3 or higher can receive college credit or advanced placement. AP Art and Design students are more likely to enroll and persist in college, major in art, and graduate on time. Success on AP Exams can also help students save on college tuition and reduce student debt.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[On November 11 a support staff member in the Jr/ Sr High building was written up for failing to follow discipline protocols. On November 13, multiple complaints about this support staff member were reported to administration and a full investigation immediately started. The investigation concluded after three school days and a recommendation of termination was reached. The support staff member's employment was terminated effective Nov 19. This person was notified and removed from campus before school the following day. PCS takes these matters seriously and is required by state law to keep certain personnel matters confidential. This brief and successful investigation followed state law and district policies to protect students & staff. We commend our building level administrators for their quick and thorough work. This past weekend, copies of related teacher & student statements from Peru JS High School were publicly released on social media. These were obtained illegally and published. PCS administration is currently working to determine who entered our school district’s system in an unauthorized and illegal manner compromising student privacy and safety.]]></description>
