La Moille HS Will Deactivate; Waltham Addition Proposal Turned Down Again

Following Tuesday's results, one school district knows what it must do; while another is left wondering what to do?.

La Moille High School students will either now go to Amboy, Hall or Mendota starting in late summer 2027. The district's seventh and eighth graders will then occupy the high school building. Current enrollment at La Moille High School is around 42 students.

Inside Peoria Public Schools proposed $700k plan to replace Elite Safe School

PEORIA (25News Now) - Community tensions are reaching a boiling point in Peoria over the future of the city’s alternative education system.
