The best parts about Perry high were the staff being understanding with the students. Along with that, the did a good job at preparing us seniors for college not only with their lessons, but with their life knowledge as well. The administrators were also very helpful and supportive in preparing us for the real world. Their were certain rules than many students and teachers did not agree with, and were a hitch in the high school experience. Other than that, I have no real issues with my time at Perry high and am glad that it was my high school.

My experience at Perry High School has been good just by being my second year at the school. I will say when I first there, the education was far more advanced than my old school so some things were a little rocky at the beginning since I was a Junior at the time, but now that I am a senior, I have showed a lot of progress overtime and now I am going to be graduating as an 2024 honor graduate.

It has been a very interesting experience at Perry High School. I was a Freshman on our first year back from quarantine, it was a tough year for everyone. The teachers here at Perry High School are amazing. All of them really do care about their students like they are their own kids. Every teacher I have had has made sure I had what I needed to succeed in class. All of the Office Staff at PHS are just the most amazing people in the world! They make sure all the students feel at home and feel safe during their learning experience. This is how I have been treated at Perry High School and why I am glad to say Perry High School is an amazing school for both Education and Community.
