Students in grades 3-8 and Adventure should bring their lunches to school. As optional school fundraisers, pizza will be offered every Tuesday (beginning August 12) and Chick-fil-A will be offered every Thursday (beginning August 14).
Go to Family Portal > School > Web Forms for pricing information and to order by Tuesday, August 5. You can also access the form in the Perimeter School app.
Again this year, we are offering a choice between cheese and pepperoni pizza as well as a choice between a Chick-fil-A sandwich and Chick-fil-A nuggets. Please keep in mind that you are choosing for the entire school year.
If you sign up for pizza, Chick-fil-A, or both this semester, you will automatically be included for next semester. You may contact Kelly Wernick, Financial Manager, with any changes in December. Each semester (August - December) and (January - May) will be billed separately. Prices listed on the web form are per semester.
In addition, you may order lunch for your student through the Atrium Café. Click here to order online. Please include only your student’s name and grade on your order. The Café will deliver your student’s lunch to the appropriate school office before his/her scheduled lunch time.
Click here for carline instructions and here for a carline map. Students may be dropped off between 7:45 - 8:05 AM and picked up from 12:15 - 12:30 PM or 3:15 - 3:30 PM. Students dropped off before 8:05 AM should go to their morning rooms: Atrium (grades K-PF), Midtown Auditorium (grades 1-2), Depot (grades 3-5), and Gym (grades 6-8).
Please ensure your students know on which side of the barricade they will be picked up at 3:15 PM. This is especially important if we need to utilize rainy day carline procedures.
As a Perimeter School parent, you are required to wear your name badge whenever you are on campus to identify yourself inside the building. Parents may gain access to school hallways by using the camera at each office entrance to call the school office and be buzzed in.
If you have lost your badge, please contact Amy Adkison, Director of Operations. Replacement badges are $10 and will be billed through FACTS.
New Perimeter School parents, you may pick up your badges at the Back-to-School Coffee on the first day of school if you have not received them already.
The care and safety of your covenant child are of utmost importance to us at Perimeter School. That’s why Perimeter Church has enlisted the help of an organization called Ministry Safe to train all staff and volunteers to protect children. As a parent at Perimeter School, you have committed to being a teacher/volunteer in your child’s class and are required to complete Ministry Safe training. If you receive one or more emails regarding Ministry Safe, please know that each email contains a separate link for an item that needs to be completed as soon as you are notified.
It is important to note that there are periodic times that parents will need to renew portions of this program, so even if you have completed Ministry Safe training in the past, there may be pieces that need to be updated.
If your credit card expires, please update your card information in FACTS.
When your student has a wellness check-up, Perimeter School recommends that you include a vision/hearing screening.
If your child has medication or special medical needs such as allergies or asthma, please download and complete a copy of the required forms in the medical section of the Helpful Resources page and turn them in to the clinic (along with any medication) during the first week of school.
We encourage you to put a Perimeter School magnet on each of your vehicles to show your membership in our covenant family. Also, this helps us better identify Perimeter School vehicles in carline. Magnets are available in both school offices.

There is excitement in the air for the fall play: Aslan is on the move!

Stay tuned for information about the spring musical. As it was last year, auditions for the fall play and spring musical will be held separately, and students may audition for both. We will celebrate those students who have strength in both dramatic and musical arts, which means it is quite possible to be cast in both shows.
