Student Enrollment
Welcome to the Perry County School Dist. No. 32!  We are extremely proud of our students, staff and supportive community and invite you to join our school family.

Kindergarten Registration
Kindergarten registration is typically held in the spring for the next fall term.  For the 2012-13 school year, kindergarten registration will be held on April 16 & 17, 2012 at the elementary school by appointment only.  You may begin calling the school to set up an appointment on or after  March 7.  Appointments will not be taken before that date.  Patrons entering the district after that time should contact the elementary office to make arrangements for registering. 

The all-day kindergarten program is a totally integrated instructional program.  Parents are involved through home communications, parent-teacher conferences, P.I.E. (Parents Involved in Education) Nights and volunteer work.  They are encouraged to visit and become a part of the kindergarten family.
