A big welcome to our newly enrolled families!
This page provides helpful information and resources to introduce you to Perimeter School.
As you read through this information, you may encounter terms particular to Perimeter School. We have created a guide to our Perimeter School lingo here to help you transition into our community.
Please be sure to read all the information in each category of this page.
Mark your calendars for Thursday, July 23! We will be having our New Parent Gathering, a gathering where you will receive important information to help you and your family prepare to start school on August 10 and have the opportunity to fellowship with other Perimeter School parents.
You will soon hear from another Perimeter School family who will welcome you and answer any questions you might have.
Each class will have a get-together the week before school starts in August. This is a chance for students and parents to meet and get to know one another before the school year begins.
Watch your inbox for an important email from FACTS Management Company. This will include your tuition and payment schedule for the year. Please check the amounts listed in the email to ensure your billing is correct.
Contact Kelly Wernick, Financial Manager, with any questions.
The week of May 25, you will receive a summer information email. This email will contain important grade level information, summer assignments, school supply lists, and other summer announcements.
If you have not received your student’s summer reading book, you may pick it up in the Elementary Office. The Elementary Office will be open on Mondays from 9:00 AM - 1:00 PM (closed the week of June 29) during the summer.
Students are responsible for completing summer assignments before the first day of school, Monday, August 10, unless another date is specified on their assignments.
Order your student's school supplies for next year online. This optional sale will allow you to avoid the end-of-summer shopping frenzy and will benefit our school.
Click here to order (School ID PER014). School supply kits will be shipped to your home. Order by June 5 for a discounted price. Order by June 26 to ensure delivery before the first day of school.
Please note that not all items on each grade's supply list can be purchased as part of the prepackaged kit. Some items will need to be purchased separately. Check your student's supply list here for these items.

Check back soon for the updated 2026-2027 dress code and ordering information.
Students in grades 3-8 and Adventure should bring their lunches to school, or you may order lunch for your student(s) from the Perimeter Café.
As optional school fundraisers, pizza will be offered every Tuesday, and Chick-fil-A will be offered every Thursday. Registration for pizza and Chick-fil-A will be open later in the summer.
Family Portal is Perimeter School’s secured database, which includes family directories, class information, order forms, student grades, student schedules, and more.
In addition, the Perimeter School app is free to download and lets you access many Family Portal features on your device.
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. You may turn in these forms and any medications to the clinic on the first day of school.
As a Perimeter School parent, you are required to wear your name badge whenever you are on campus to identify yourself inside the building.
You will receive your name badge(s) at the New Parent Gathering in July. After the event, name badges will be available in the Elementary Office. The Elementary Office will be open on Mondays from 9:00 AM - 1:00 PM (closed the week of June 29) during the summer.
The care and safety of your covenant child(ren) 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 when 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.
The Ministry Safe program is an ongoing process. Each parent must complete the necessary step(s) upon receiving an “Expiring Soon” email. Otherwise, parents will be out of compliance and unable to participate in school activities involving students.
The week of August 3, plan to attend teacher meet-and-greets and class get-togethers.
The first day of school will be Monday, August 10. Adventure will begin on this date as well.
Classes begin at 8:15 AM (students may be dropped off as early as 7:45 AM), and afternoon carline begins at 12:15 PM and 3:15 PM.
Mandatory parent meetings and campus meetings are held on Monday nights during the school year.
You can find the most up-to-date calendar information on the school's web calendar. The web calendar will be updated throughout the summer.
We desire for all of our Perimeter School parents to feel connected and informed.
The week of May 25, you will receive a summer information email. This email will contain important grade level information, summer assignments, school supply lists, and other summer announcements.
The week of July 20, you will receive a back-to-school email. This email will include specific details for the upcoming year.
During the summer, please feel free to reach out to your summer mentors with any questions.
Every Tuesday during the school year, you will receive the Week at a Glance. This email will include schoolwide announcements, important reminders, and a weekly blog to equip and encourage you and your family.
Teachers and room parents will also send emails with class-specific announcements and reminders during the school year, as needed, specifically at the beginning of each month to outline classroom serving assignments, field trips, and other important dates.
During the school year, please feel free to reach out to your room parents with any questions.
One of the great joys and benefits of our school is parent involvement. Roles and responsibilities vary in every grade, but you will find that when your years at Perimeter School are over, the opportunity to be in the classroom with your child was one of the greatest blessings.
The week of August 3, you will receive an email outlining the process for signing up for your parent serving responsibilities for the entire school year.
And first and second grade parents get the special blessing of teaching Friday Enrichment Days. There will be a training at the beginning of the school year to help you feel equipped to lead these days. Information about this training will be available later in the summer.
At Perimeter School, our purpose is to educate and equip generations of students and families to glorify God and pursue kingdom flourishing.
The Perimeter School blog is a great resource for equipping and encouragement. Perimeter School leaders, teachers, parents, and alumni share timely and invaluable wisdom with our covenant community.
And stay tuned for opportunities throughout the year to be equipped as you fulfill your calling to love, serve, and lead your family.
Follow the Perimeter School Facebook and Perimeter School Instagram pages for encouragement, equipping, alumni stories, and more.
Join the Perimeter School Covenant Family Facebook page and the Perimeter School Marketplace Facebook page. These are private Facebook groups for Perimeter School families, monitored by the School Ministry Team (SMT).
The Honors Reading Program is an optional program offered to students at Perimeter School in grades 1-8. Students who choose to participate read books from the list of living books for their grade level (or above), keep track of the titles they read, and are given recognition at the end of the school year if they read the number of books that qualifies them for “gold” or “silver” (this number varies by grade level). Click here to learn more about the heart behind this program.
The 2026-2027 Honors Reading lists and instructions are available here.
Contact Sarah Barber, Literature Chair, with any questions.
The fine arts are a great way for your child to get involved at Perimeter School. While dramatic interpretation, storytelling, poetic interpretation, and class plays are common in our elementary classwork, middle school students have a few more opportunities in the dramatic arts. Perimeter School performs two extracurricular productions each year, open to students in grades 5-8, through auditions held in August. Stay tuned for the announcement of next year’s shows later in the summer.
We are also proud to host a chapter of the International Thespian Society. Any middle school student is eligible to join the Junior Thespians by earning points for participation in extracurricular productions and activities.
Contact Katherine Brown, Drama Chair, with any questions.
The mission of Perimeter School Athletics is to develop athletes who love deeply, compete fiercely, and work diligently. Our standard-bearer is Jesus Christ, and His example should define all these traits. Athletic technique and training will be provided in a way that prepares students for the high school level, but that will be secondary to strengthening their identities in Christ. In short, our student-athletes are spiritually strengthened and athletically prepared.
If your grade 5-8 student is interested in Perimeter Athletics for the 2026-2027 school year, click here to fill out the athletics interest form.
