Peoria Unified to form Facility Utilization Committee

The Peoria Unified School District values input from district stakeholders and is forming a Superintendent’s Facility Utilization Committee to identify district sites that may need further study in consideration of repurposing or alternative use.

Individuals with the Peoria School District’s best interest at heart, who are skilled at analyzing complex data and have strong critical thinking and collaboration skills, may be a good fit for this committee. This committee will be comprised of 11-13 employees, community members and parents representing various areas of the school district and community.

The work of the committee will begin in December 2020 and will continue throughout the remainder of the 2020-21 school year, meeting from approximately 4 – 6 p.m., bi-monthly. A complete schedule of meetings dates is forthcoming.

Those interested in serving on the Facility Utilization Committee should complete the online form by November 13.
