The Promontory School of Expeditionary Learning located in Perry is celebrating a new calendar year after officially opening its doors in September of 2012.  On January 24, 2013, trustees, a teacher, and three students were present at a Board Meeting.  The meeting, beginning with a thought and a prayer, discussed the Design Principles that have been adopted at the school.

According to a chat with the Chief of Perry’s police department on January 24, Perry has four full-time officers, including himself, that provide 24/7 service - each working 12-hour shifts - along with two part-time officers who work 2 nights a week. Four years ago, they had 8 officers, but the service was an on-call basis.  There have been up to 6 part-time officers recently. To upgrade, the chief would like a lieutenant at some point.
