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. For years, Peoria Public Schools has contracted Elite Community Outreach to operate its Safe School at Trewyn School. The program serves 6th through 8th grade students facing suspension, expulsion, classroom disruption, or neighborhood gang violence. Its staffers are not traditional educators, they are “game changers”, men and women with criminal records who turned their lives around to mentor youth in crisis.

CPS, schools statewide want more taxpayer funds from legislature

(The Center Square) – Despite the state’s increased funding to public school districts in the budget, school districts want state lawmakers to find more taxpayer money to fund their operations. The Illinois House Appropriations committee on Elementary & Secondary Education on Thursday had a hearing on the future of the state’s Evidence-Based Funding program, which has increasingly fallen short of the goals set for it in recent years. The $9.96 billion Chicago Public Schools budget for the current year relies on $285 million in local Tax Increment Financing district funds and $150 million in state funds that have only been promised verbally by outgoing Illinois House Speaker Emanuel “Chris” Welch to address the district’s $732.5 million deficit. Acting CPS Chief Budget Officer Emila Zoko said CPS finances aren’t just an issue this year, but the district has experienced growing needs after federal COVID-19 funds dried up. “The costs associated with meeting our students' wide range of needs continue to grow without dedicated revenue streams able to keep pace. CPS has faced staggering budget deficits each year since FY25,” Zoko said. But CPS wasn’t the only one to argue for more funds – the Chicago Principals and Administrators Association also urged
