    Dear Peru CSD Families, I am writing to inform you that Peru Central School has used only 3 out of the 5 emergency days allocated for the 2022-2023 school year. We are pleased to report that we feel relatively confident that we will not require additional emergency days for the remainder of this academic year. We also wanted to let you know that we will be extending the Memorial Day weekend. There will be no school on May 26-May 30 . We had previously designated May 26 and May 30 as the two additional give back days as noted on the last page the District Calendar.  We hope that this news will be welcomed by all of our families and that you will take this opportunity to enjoy a long weekend together. As always, we thank you for your support and understanding. Sincerely, Scott Storms Peru Central School District

  • School Safety Protocol

    Dear Parents and Guardians, At Peru Central School, we prioritize the safety and security of our students and staff. To maintain a safe and secure environment, we have implemented a visitor identification protocols that requires all visitors to leave a photo ID at the office upon entering the building. When you arrive at the school, please present your photo ID at the office, where it will be securely held until you are ready to leave. In exchange for your ID, the office will provide you with a visitor badge that must be worn at all times while inside the building. Once your visit is complete, please return to the office and exchange your visitor badge for your photo ID. This protocol helps us ensure that only authorized individuals are in the building and helps us maintain a safe environment for our students and staff. We kindly remind you that for the safety of our school, individuals who do not have a photo ID will not be permitted to enter the building. Thank you for your cooperation and understanding in this matter. If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact me. Sincerely, Scott Storms  Peru CSD Superintendent
