Peru Jr./Sr. High school isn't a great school but more than that , it is a community. Our school is very close with the community that is all around it , from various collaborations such as our annual apple fest in which Peru partakes in the parade as our marching band serenade the members in which help create such a warm and welcoming environment.

Overall, Peru High School has been a true blessing. My teachers were for the most part wonderful and I have learned a lot from them. They care about their students and want what's best for them. Even after moving up grades, I still wave to my junior year social studies teacher in the hallway every time I see him. It's great to be able to have bonds with teachers.
