Peirce SchoolHelen C. Peirce School is a pre-K through eighth grade campus. Opened in 1915, the school now includes the original facility and a new building completed in August 1999. The new building houses a state-of-the-art media center, computer lab, music room, art room, cafeteria and seventeen classrooms. In 1993, the school was selected to participate in the Chicago Board of Education Specialty School Program and was renamed the Helen C. Peirce School of International Studies. A program of International Studies and Character Education has been implemented, enriching the curriculum.  

Peirce is a true neighborhood school, drawing 78% of its student population from the Edgewater/Andersonville community. Peirce is considered one of the best neighborhood schools on the North Side of Chicago and has a Magnet Cluster Program that focuses on Literature and Writing.

Peirce has a dynamic, innovative, and well-educated staff with an impressive eight National Board Certified Master Teachers, a Golden Apple Winner and a Kohl McCormick Early Childhood award winning teacher. These fine teachers provide students with a first-rate education during school and after school hours.

The parent community plays a very important role at Peirce School.  The Local School Council; Multilingual Parent, Teacher, Student Organization; Parent Advisory Committee; Bilingual Advisory Committee, and Friends of Peirce support the school’s programming through many projects and fund-raising activities throughout the year. 


Winter Fun Day2nd Annual Winter Fun Day
Saturday, February 6th
Broadway Armory Park, 5917 N. Broadway St.
1:00 p.m. – 4:00 p.m.

Dear Neighbor,

Please join me for the second annual Winter Fun Day this Saturday, February 6th, from 1:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. at the Broadway Armory Park, located at 5917 N. Broadway St.

Please bring your friends and family and join mine in getting rid of those “winter blues” by playing in bouncing castles, dancing to music and enjoying free refreshments. Last year, over 250 students, family members and community residents came out to see what our local park facility had to offer, and this year’s event is expected to be even better.

This event is FREE and open to everyone, and complimentary refreshments will be served. Attached is a flier for this event, and I would greatly appreciate you forwarding it to those you know, and posting it for all to see. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me. I can be reached by phone at (773) 784-2002 or by responding to this email. Thank you and I hope to see you there!

Sincerely,

Harry Osterman
State Representative
14th District
