Board of Education

Welcome from Perry Board of Education President

Welcome back for the 2012-2013 school year. Even though school was out for summer, many remained hard at work preparing for the coming school year. From curriculum work to bus maintenance and inspections to facilities cleaning and capital improvements (like the completion of our three-year paving project) work has progressed in preparation for the start of the school year.

As important as the work is that our staff does, the most important work rests with you. That’s your interest, involvement and support of your student(s). It is clear, more support and interest at home leads to more success in the classroom. The Perry Schools have been rated Excellent by the state of Ohio eight straight years – we can work together to continue the trend.

The Board of Education, along with the staff of Perry Local Schools wishes you and your family a happy, healthy, productive and enriching 2012-2013 school year. We look forward to serving you and invite you to become, or remain, involved. Let’s all help our children achieve their full potential.

Sincerely,
Matt Farrell
Board President
