We are proud that so many of the families whose lives have been changed by Peoria Academy give back to our school to ensure that others may have similar experiences. These tax-deductible gifts empower us to hire the finest teachers, maintain our world class facilities and supplement tuition for deserving students. We would love to tell you more about how your gift can ensure that future generations of Peoria children have access to a Peoria Academy education.
