Peru Primary Building Leadership

Dear Primary Families:

Welcome to a new school year at Peru Central School! As the primary principal, I am delighted to welcome both familiar faces and those who are new to our school community. Together, we are beginning a journey filled with growth, curiosity, and shared success.
This year, we are embracing a vision centered on academic excellence, social-emotional wellness, and a sense of belonging for each student. Literacy will be a key focus, as we know that strong reading and writing skills open doors to lifelong learning. Additionally, through the Multi-Tiered System of Supports (MTSS), we are committed to meeting the unique needs of every child, ensuring that every student feels seen, valued, and equipped to thrive.
We also know that a balanced approach is essential for meaningful learning, so wellness will play an important role in our programs. We’ll be integrating mindfulness and healthy habits to support students’ emotional well-being and create a positive, energized atmosphere where students can do their best.
Our shared vision is one of collaboration and collective success. By working together—families, educators, and students—we can create an environment where every child is empowered to excel. With open communication and shared goals, we will celebrate each child’s growth and achievements along the way.
Thank you for your continued support and partnership as we work together to make this school year a memorable and successful one. Let’s embrace the excitement and potential of this new beginning!

Warmest regards,

Sara Simon-Shult, Primary Principal
