2016-2017
First Student Day:
July 27th
The outstanding staff members of Perry Townships Schools, who impact the lives of
children on a daily basis, are the key ingredient to the success of the school district.
I am blessed to serve the Perry Township community as the Superintendent of
Schools. I am also one of the fortunate people that found a calling that I truly embrace.
The ability to help children and their families realize their educational dreams is a very
rewarding experience. I look forward to the 2016-17 school year with excitement and
high expectations.
Dr. Thomas J. Little, Jr.
