We're Celebrating 30 Years!
promoting academic excellence since 1992
Since 1992, PEP has promoted academic excellence in the Glenbard high schools and its elementary feeder schools. PEP’s 30th Celebration is an opportunity to reflect on the educational foundation’s rich history in providing learning opportunities, while re-energizing its commitment to students, teachers and staff moving forward. Join us in celebrating PEP’s past, present and future!
What is PEP?
The Partnership for Educational Progress (PEP) promotes excellence in the Glenbard community schools in DuPage County, IL. As an educational foundation, we provide financial resources to foster and support learning for all students today and tomorrow.
Partner Programs
PEP acts as a fiscal agent for several area organizations that are doing incredible work within the district to ensure students are prepared to succeed in school and that they have access to the best possible educational opportunities.

ANNOUNCING THE WINNERS OF THIS YEAR’S

Business INCubator is much like a classroom version of “Shark Tank,” where teams of students work together to create and fully develop a product or service, putting their thoughts and ideas into action and implementing their ideas.
Business professionals volunteer as coaches and mentors for student teams, sharing their business knowledge and experience with students. The yearlong course culminates in a pitch to a board of advisors, who will award funding to teams with promising business ideas. For information contact Glenbard East teacher Don Prochilo at [email protected]
