Hello, This is Nathan Birkhimer, and I am the Ag. Teacher and FFA Advisor here at Fayetteville-Perry High School. I wanted to give the community a heads up and let you know that this Friday, May 17th, some of my FFA members will be participating in a Drive Your Tractor to School Day! We will be meeting at the Township Building in the morning around 7:15 am, and at about 7:40 am, we will head down 50 and 68 towards the school. Students will park their tractors in the gravel/grassy area beside the athletic field scoreboard area. At the end of the day, students will leave with their tractors at about 3:10 pm. I wanted to let you know to help plan with your Friday commute. Our School Resource Officer will be assisting with the event, blocking traffic at the light and as we turn into the school, to keep all the tractors together. Thank you! We are excited to bring this activity back.

Tonight's softball tournament game has been cancelled. The game is currently rescheduled for tomorrow at 5pm, provided that the weather cooperates. Any updates will be provided!
