Perry Public School District, Lake County, Ohio

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Perry Public Schools is a school system located in Perry, in Lake County, Ohio.

The U.S. Department of Education's No Child Left Behind-Blue Ribbon Schools Program [1] named Perry High School as a Blue Ribbon School from 1994-1996; Perry Middle School achieved the same status in 1999 and 2000 (one of only about 20 schools statewide in that year.) The schools (Elementary, Middle, & High) are all connected. At the high school, connected to the Community Fitness Center (CFC), there is the Alumni Stadium. A track runs around the football field- which also doubles as a soccer field.

School colors are traditionally red and white. However, there has been a contemporary push in the direction of black as one of the colors, with opposition coming from staunch alumni.
