Principal's Message
SES Families,
This past week, we hosted an open house for new students/families that will be attending Southport Elementary next year. It was really fun to get to share all of the amazing things we have happening at our school. Teachers spoke passionately about the things that make each grade level great: fun field trips, a variety of extracurricular clubs, and Project Based Learning experiences. We also shared the excitement that comes with Rocket Day in the spring! Southport Elementary really is a great place to be!

Familias de SES,
Esta semana pasada tuvimos una casa abierta para alumnos y familias nuevas que asistieron a Southport Elementary el próximo año escolar. Fue divertido poder compartir todas las cosas maravillosas que suceden en nuestra escuela. Las maestras hablaron apasionadamente sobre lo que hace cada grado maravilloso: paseos escolares divertidos, una variedad de clubs y Project Based Learning (proyectos en clase para la comunidad). También compartimos la emoción que viene con Rocket Day en la primavera! Southport Elementary es un lugar maravilloso en donde estar!

School Start & End Times --- UPDATED for next year!
Dear Parents and Guardians,
In addition to the school boundary changes for the 2023-2024 school year, we have evaluated
our bus tier schedule and will implement the following changes:
● Rosa Parks Elementary and Kindergarten will be moved to Tier 3
● Jeremiah Gray Elementary and Kindergarten will be moved to Tier 3
● Winchester Village will be moved to Tier 3
● Mary Bryan Elementary will be moved to Tier 2
● Abraham Lincoln Elementary will be moved to Tier 2
Adjustments made to the boundary lines and bus tiers will help maximize our resources. These changes will balance the routes and tiers and most importantly, continue to allow us to transport students in a safe and timely manner. Please find the updated bus tier schedule below.
Thankyou for your patience and support as we improve our system.
Best,
Perry Township Schools

Early Childhood Academy
Kindergarten Registration
Kindergarten registration is underway! We are excited to accept registration for your child to
attend kindergarten in Perry Township for the 2023-2024 school year.
To attend kindergarten next year your child must be five (5) years old by August 1, 2023. After consultation with the building principal, the waiver process allows a child to turn by five (5) by September 1, 2023.
Please use the information and boundary map below to find your child’s designated
kindergarten academy for the 2023-2024 school year. Schools are determined by residence only.
Kindergarten Boundary Map
Dear Parents/Guardians of Incoming Kindergarteners,
After reviewing our transportation routes, we determined that it was necessary to update the
boundaries for our kindergarten academies for the 2023-2024 school year. Your child’s
kindergarten will no longer be based on the elementary schools. It will be determined by your
residence within these newly established boundaries.
To find your kindergarten, please use the map on our website. You can type in your exact
address to find which school your kindergartener will attend.
If you have already registered for kindergarten and your school changed, the principal will
contact you. You do not need to fill out a new enrollment form. Your child’s information will be
transferred to their new school.
If you have not registered for kindergarten yet, please do so using the updated map. The
enrollment forms can be found on our website.
We appreciate your understanding and patience during this transition. If you have any
questions, please contact the office of the Assistant Superintendent for Foundational Learning at 317-789-3724.
Sincerely,
Perry Township Schools

2023 SPRING NFL Flag Football at Cardinal Stadium
REGISTER YOUR PARTICIPANT FOR THE GRADE THEY ARE
CURRENTLY ENROLLED IN FOR SCHOOL!
NFL Flag at Cardinal Stadium is a 5 vs. 5, non-contact, recreational, co-ed league for children as young as 4 years old (Pre-Kindergarten) to 14 years old (8th Grade). We limit teams to 10 players or fewer to maximize playing time. This is an exceptional program for first time players who want to learn the fundamentals of football, and at the same time our league is also a wonderful opportunity for players who may want to continue to enhance their fundamentals and agility.
There are no try-outs and everyone participates! Children are placed on teams according to school, grade, and coach/buddy request. We do our best to make sure teams are even and good competition takes place each week.
This is a 6 game season with games played Sundays and a 1 Day Single Elimination Tournament at the end of the season. Practices take place one hour prior to game time each week to ensure a convenient and fun experience for all.
Participants will receive a NFL reversible jersey and flag belt. Mouth Guards are required and available for purchase at Cardinal Stadium.
