Spirit Week Oct 28 - Nov 1
This week is Spirit Week! Just a reminder that for Halloween, students are welcome to dress up. They just have to follow the normal rules - no look alike weapons, no full face masks, nothing with fake blood or anything that would make us think they are hurt/cause panic.
Panorama Survey
Each year in Worthington, students are given the Panorama Survey in the Fall and the Spring. This letter provides more detail about the survey. Please email jrobertson@wscloud.org if you have questions, concerns, or would like to opt your student out of this survey.
Better Babysitting Class
Enriching Kidz will host a Babysitting Course here at Perry in November and December. Here is the Flyer with more information.

Getting on Infinite Campus & Schoology
Infinite Campus, and especially the Parent App, is a great way to keep track of your student's grades. Instructions can be found here.
Schoology is a great place to look at the upcoming due dates for your student. You can always have your student sign on and take you through, or you can get Family Access. Instruction on how to do this can be found here.
School Lunch / Free & Reduced Fees Application
Worthington Schools offers breakfast and lunch to students. Pricing for meals will be based on family eligibility. New Meal Applications are required for families every school year. Families may find the online Free/Reduced Lunch Eligibility Form HERE. All students use their Lunch ID for meals. The student's number can be found in the Parent Portal by selecting the Student ID tab and then look for their student's Lunch PIN.
Families may add money to their lunch account through My Payments Plus. They may also use My Payments Plus to track their student's account and see much money remains on it. My Payments Plus is also used to pay other fees, like high school parking permits and AP testing fees.

Ms. Rob's Ramblings
As colder weather eventually settles in, please remember to send your child to school with a warm coat each day. And even more importantly, make sure their name is clearly labeled on the coat! In fact, it’s a great idea to put your child's name on anything they bring to school—lunch boxes, water bottles, hats, gloves, you name it. If an item has a name on it, we’ll make sure it finds its way back to your child. Otherwise, it may end up in our (very large!) Lost and Found bin.
Thank you for helping us keep everyone cozy and reunited with their belongings!
