Perry has come a long way from #8 to #1 "A" in 2011-2012 school year in the District . Now 2012-2013 still at the top at #3. The progress speaks for its self. Great teacher and staff. The kids just have to know they can make a difference. Big dreams, one can even be president some day. I have not seen the perfect school but it does take dedication and perseverance to make a change. They have the STEAM program that will prepare them into high school and then into college and into the real world. They are the future Education is the transportation to your destination!
