Ken Hinton took over as superintendent of Peoria Public Schools nearly one year ago. A lot of positive changes have been made during his short tenure in the post, and Hinton said he foresees a bright future for the district through slow, steady progress. “I see myself as a servant, one who’s been given a tremendous opportunity to make education in our community a world-class experience for students and families. I realize this will take time, but it’ll become a reality. We didn’t get to where we are in a day, and it’ll take longer than a day to reach the excellence we all are striving to attain.”
