Every day matters, and every phone call helps! Thank you for partnering with us to support Pirate success.




Every day in class makes a difference for our Pirates. To help students stay on track, we’ve highlighted the best days to schedule vacations, appointments, or family trips in dark green on this calendar.
By planning around these dates, you help your child—and their teachers—make the most of every learning day. Thank you for supporting strong attendance all year long!

We are excited to announce Jennifer Fritsche and Dana Hogard as our first #TeacherProud Tuesday recognitions for 2025-26! 🟢⚪🏴☠️
Jennifer Fritche is a special education instructor at Perryville Primary Center. Her nominator said: "Mrs. Fritsche’s impact goes far beyond academics; she is opening doors to independence, confidence, and opportunity for her students. Her commitment reminds us what teaching is all about – meeting every child where they are and never giving up on their ability to succeed. This is why she deserves to be recognized and celebrated. With so much patience, creativity, and love, she makes reading accessible and gives the gift of confidence. She believes in every child’s potential and never gives up until they succeed. Mrs. Fritsche is a perfect example of the difference one teacher can make, and everyone is so grateful for the passion and care she brings into the classroom."
Dana Hogard is a math teacher at Perryville High School. Her nominator said: "Mrs. Hogard is a teacher who deeply cares for her students and the subject she teaches. She takes her time to explain the material and will always help with any questions. She makes hard concepts easier to understand and does it seamlessly. She's a teacher most students respect, and it's a respect that's been earned with kindness."



Families are invited to walk through creatively decorated trunks, enjoy treats, and celebrate the Halloween season together. Costumes are encouraged for kids.
Anyone who would like to sign up a trunk can contact the Parent Anchor Initiative at parentanchorinitiative@gmail.com.
