Perry Local Schools, lead by PHS Student Council has been taking on an initiative to bring clean water to the Bahamas.  The island has seen its water supply depleted by the damage done by Hurricane Dorian.  The District is assisting Bahama Native and area Pastor, Cedric Beckles in conjunction with other entities to deliver clean water to the people of the Bahamas.  Due to the high demand, a resource we take for granted day to day has come at a premium for the island especially in the immediate area.  The District has secured nearly 8,100 gallons of water from Sand Rock and over 400 additional empty containers have been donated.  There have been many other donations including the Major Sponsorship of Aqua Ohio.  Most of the expense lies in the logistics of getting the water to the island.  Please help us Friday Night in supporting this wonderful cause and bringing hope to the Bahama Islands.

The Perry Local School District has been presented with an opportunity to address its aging school buildings. The district is seeking the community’s input to determine how to move forward regarding this issue.  The Perry Local School District and its Building Advisory Committee have determined that renovating all of the buildings would be cost prohibitive. As such, after extensive work with local community advisory groups, they have established three overall facility plan options for consideration. The community is being asked to participate in upcoming focus groups or an online survey to help the district on its plan for a potential 2020 ballot initiative.  Click here to read the entire press release and click here to take the online survey.
