Dear Sky View Families and Students,

Welcome to the 2024-2025 school year! Please welcome our new assistant principal, Mr. Jason Whitaker, to Sky View.   Mr. Whitaker joins the Peoria Unified School District with 23 years of educational and administration experience. He comes to Sky View with enthusiasm for learning and a passion for helping students succeed.   

Our mission and vision at Sky View is for all students to LEAD, LEARN and SOAR.  Sky View teachers and staff are ready to get to know their students and present high-quality instruction for all learners. As we prepare students for success, we will continue to build on foundational skills, life skills, social-emotional strategies and develop the necessary critical thinking skills needed in and out of the classroom. Growing safe, Organized, Accountable and Respectful individuals (SOAR).

It is my hope that we will work together to provide the students of Sky View Elementary with the best opportunities for a solid foundation, academically and socially. Please feel free to contact your child’s teacher or administration by calling or emailing if you have any questions or concerns throughout the school year. We look forward to a wonderful year of learning!
