PES Pickup Route Scrutinized: Resident Kacey Dewall revisited concerns about the parent pickup route for Peotone Elementary School on Oak Street, citing ongoing issues with blocked driveways and mail delivery. District officials stated the traffic pattern is developed in collaboration with the school resource officer. They noted the main school driveway is used for bus staging, making it unavailable for car riders. Dewall suggested the board explore using the school’s service road as an alternative to alleviate the impact on the residential street.
