People went to see the Patriots win their first home game on Tuesday night against Midland. But if you stayed long enough after the JV game you witnessed a surprise. Mr. Eric Heath, our principle had the honor of surprising Mr. Bergia, our district superintendent for over 50 years, with a gymnasium named after him. That’s right! The Peoria Heights High School Gym is now named The Roger Bergia Gymnasium and has a huge banner to prove it.
Mr. Bergia will be retiring from the Heights this school year after 52 years with us and will be greatly missed.
