Hey Viking Nation - it's time once again to highlight our seniors! Congratulations to the Class of 2023 #VikingNation
Senior Spotlight: Chloe
Future Plans: This fall I will be attending Edgewood College for Health Science, Sonography Concentration.
Favorite Teacher & Why: My favorite teacher would be Mr. Meyer. Mr. Meyer was my first pitching coach and taught me many lessons. I remember in middle school I was so excited for him to be my teacher and I thought I was so cool that I was the last Schraepfer he got to teach.
Favorite Memory at Pec: My favorite memory would be scoring my 1000th point on my senior night this basketball season.
Advice for Underclassmen: Work hard, but do NOT forget to have fun. Your time in high school flies by.
Pecatonica Jv Baseball vs Belmont that was scheduled for today Monday April 10th has been canceled.
Message from the Superintendent:
Greetings Pecatonica Residents,
Last night the voters in the Pecatonica School District preliminarily approved an $18.8 million facilities referendum. These funds will be critical for updating our facilities and ensuring our students and staff are teaching and learning in a healthy, safe, and clean environment.
I am continually amazed at the level of support for our schools. We understand that this referendum was not a small ask for our community, especially during these uncertain economic times. Thank you for prioritizing the safety and wellbeing of our students and staff. Even with these additional funds, our school budgets will continue to be tight. Please know that we are committed to providing a world class education for our students while remaining fiscally responsible to our community members.
The hard work is just beginning as we now enter the project’s design phase. Meetings with key stakeholders will take place as the District moves these projects forward. We will continue our transparent communication throughout the construction phase and provide regular updates to the community.
Once again, thank you for all of your support. I am so honored to be a part of this district. GO VIKINGS!
With gratitude,
Dr. Dani Scott, Superintendent

This year, all middle school students are participating in the 2023 NPR Student Podcast Challenge for social studies class. One group, Tristan Olson and Simon Paust, chose to do their podcast on Culver's, and what makes it stand out from the rest of fast food. To take their work the extra mile, Tristan and Simon not only reached out to the Culver's Corp, but scheduled an interview with Eric Skrum.
Eric, who is the Director of Public Relations and Communications for Culver's, was willing to sit down with Tristan and Simon to help answer their questions about Culver's and help them learn about the franchise's founding, mission, and goals.
We wanted to share this awesome opportunity with the community, thank Eric, and applaud the outstanding work done by some of our Pec scholars!"
Please join us on the 21st at 6:30 PM!
