Perry Central School District

How did our seniors usher in their final Homecoming Week at PCS? By getting up really early, heading down to the turf, and spending some quality time together. We also think there may have been some breakfast cooking involved. Kudos to you...soak in every minute with your classmates! #PrideInTheHive #ClassOf2026

Thank you to all who came out on Saturday night to get Homecoming kickstarted with the Powderpuff Game!!! #PrideInTheHive

We spotted Mrs. Luczak's UPKers on a fall scavenger hunt this morning. We're confident they found all the items on their list using those adorable binoculars! #PrideInTheHive

The smile says it all. We love seeing our elementary students enjoying their visits to the pool during PE classes with Coach Allen and Coach VonGunden. #PrideInTheHive

How can we describe the GLOW with Your Hands event to someone who has never attended? Simply....it's a really cool event and incredible opportunity for our students.
Yesterday, a group of our high school students joined 1,000+ peers from around the region in attending the annual event at the Genesee County Fairgrounds in Batavia. The goal of GLOW with Your Hands is to provide students with an environment where they can explore careers in manufacturing, agriculture, skilled trades, and healthcare through hands-on activities and networking with professionals. From welding to flying drones to learning about becoming a first responder…there was something for everyone. #PrideInTheHive

The smell of onions sautéing on the stove and cornbread baking in the oven...yum! The Jr. High kitchen is smelling absolutely delicious right now as Mrs. Lenhard and Mrs. Consler's Food-Fiber-Fabric students are preparing several different recipes for their chili cook-off. The kids are excited to try their creations...and we can't blame them! #PrideInTheHive

We look forward to Mr. Fitch's visit each September to talk about the important work of service organizations like Perry Rotary and pass out dictionaries to each third-grader. Rotary has been keeping this tradition alive for 23 years! #PrideInTheHive

It was a beautiful morning to host Ag Day!!! Thank you to the Perry FFA and Mrs. Huttar for planning such a fun and educational event for our students. A special shoutout to Stephanie Czerniak and Cornell Cooperative Extension Wyoming County, Attica Veterinary Associates, Wolcott Farm, and several community volunteers including Amber True, Travis Huttar, and Abbey Paddock. #PrideInTheHive

Yesterday, Mrs. Caccamise's 7th grade history students played a game to help them better understand how a bill becomes a law and the challenges faced during the process. #PrideInTheHive

Several high schoolers traveled to Houghton University this week to attend the school’s annual college fair. Students had the opportunity to meet representatives from dozens of local colleges and universities. #PrideInTheHive

Ms. Stead and Mrs. Harasimowicz are collaborating on a Food Club for several of our elementary friends. The goal is to expose students to new foods in a safe, familiar environment. Sometimes students are preparing new snacks, participating in new sensory-related activities, and much more. This morning, while making apple play dough, students worked on measuring and mixing ingredients with a variety of textures and smells. #PrideInTheHive

Mr. Shuskey’s high school Aquatics students had an incredible hands-on learning opportunity while visiting Loon Lake in Steuben County last week. The Loon Lake Watershed Improvement Alliance invited the class to conduct research on the aquatic plant community in the southern part of the lake and examine the zooplankton community in the lake. Additional fish studies will be conducted in the spring. #PrideInTheHive

Planning, budgeting, and preparing a healthy meal is a vital life skill. Mrs. Lenhard and Mrs. Consler challenged their Food-Fiber-Fabric students to explore a virtual grocery store, plan a healthy meal for four people that included fruits, vegetables, protein, grains, and dairy, and successfully prepare the meal. Oh, and there was one catch...students could only spend $10 on ingredients. We're proud of the thought and teamwork that students put into this challenge! #PrideInTheHive

Fall officially starts today but Mrs. Schneider's 3rd graders got a head start on celebrating last week! The class attended a virtual apple experience through Agriculture in the Classroom before enjoying honeycrisp apples from Burley Berries and Blooms and apple cider Timbits from Tim Hortons. What a great way to start the season! #PrideInTheHive

Mrs. Huttar gave her FFA members an incredible opportunity this morning - one they won’t soon forget. The Perry FFA chapter welcomed the New York State FFA Officers Zoe Valencia (President), Leah Figary (Vice President), Kaylee Heroth (Secretary), Mark Hoffman Jr. (Treasurer), Dylan LaFave (Reporter), and Matthew Mulligan (Sentinel), as well as Hunter Smigel (NYS National Officer Candidate) and Abigale Jacobsen (National FFA Officer), to PCS. The officers toured the JH high tunnel, chatted with students, and provided insight into how FFA has benefitted them as young leaders. Our students are already eager to connect with this group again next month at the National FFA Convention and Expo in Indianapolis. #PrideInTheHive #PerryFFA

Imagine the nerve of our kindergartners, Coach Allen and Coach VonGunden for taking a nature walk on this beautiful day. Honestly, we can't blame them and we wish they had asked us to go! #PrideInTheHive

When you walk into a classroom during free reading time and there's absolute silence...that's when you know students are loving the book they're reading. #PrideInTheHive

It can't possibly be a bad day when you start with high-fives from Principal Gilsinan! #PrideInTheHive

We love it when members of the PCS alumni join forces! Maddie (Naschke) Navarra, Class of 2019, is currently completing her student-teaching at Warsaw Elementary School with Guy Macaluso, Class of 1985 and the instrumental music teacher at WES. Maddie earned her undergraduate degree from SUNY Geneseo and is pursuing a master's degree from Nazareth University. #PrideInTheHive #PCSDfamily

There's nothing, and we mean nothing, better than an old-school flash card war.
You know what we're talking about...the adrenaline, the anticipation, the panic. Props to Mrs. Ferro's 4th graders for being fierce competitors. #PrideInTheHive
