Our Story

Founded on May 5th 1856 in Peoria, Illinois, Peoria High School is the seventeenth oldest high school in the nation and the oldest west of the Allegheny Mountains. A school with as proud and diverse a history as Peoria High, needs a support organization just as diverse and proud of the school's heritage.
