District 32 Families,
Due to the threat of severe weather forecast for our area later this evening, Perry County School District 32 is canceling all after-school and evening activities for tonight, Monday, April 27. This includes:
Adventure Club
Little Pirates late pickup (please pick up students at 2:55 p.m. dismissal via parent pickup lanes)
All athletic practices/events
Middle School Choir concerts (rescheduling updates will be communicated later)
We are currently planning for a regular end of day dismissal. We are keeping a close eye on the weather throughout the afternoon due to the potential for some popup events. We will follow our severe weather protocols and shelter students/staff in our FEMA rooms in the event a weather emergency occurs prior to dismissal.
We encourage everyone in the Pirate family to stay weather aware and have a plan in place for this evening.

As we approach the April 7 election, we want to ensure every member of our Pirate family has the information needed to make an informed decision regarding the future of Perryville High School.
Last spring a tornado came and wreaked havoc on our campus, but it also highlighted the incredible resilience of this community. We have navigated numerous challenges together over the last year in the face of an unknown future for PHS. A week from today, voters will have a say in what the future looks like when they make a decision on Proposition K.I.D.S.
Prop K.I.D.S (Keep Improving District Schools) will ask voters whether to approve a $0.41 cent tax increase, to generate $52.5 million that would support a project to build a reimagined PHS.
Full information about Prop K.I.D.S. is available on the District 32 website via the link below, including answers to the most frequently asked questions.
www.perryville.k12.mo.us/page/recovery
Don’t forget, election day is Tuesday, April 7 — we encourage you to make a plan to vote and ensure your voice is heard. In addition to Prop K.I.D.S., voters will also have the opportunity to vote on candidates for the District 32 Board of Education and other local elected positions.
Thank you for your continued support as we plan for the future of our students together.
