It is a pretty average high school. Many of the teachers are kind and always willing to help. There are always a few teachers who were not very helpful.

The teachers at Peotone High School are great; they help their students prepare for the future. I never felt unsafe at school. I feel that the variety of classes offered could be better, especially in the foreign language department. Overall, I think Peotone High School provided me with enough experience and knowledge to prepare me for life past high school.
