West Perry School District
- West Perry School District
The West Perry School District is a public school district located in Perry County, Pennsylvania. The district occupies the western half of the county, with Newport School District, Greenwood School District, and Susquenita School District covering the more populated east. West Perry School District was formed in 1964 from the consolidation of several smaller school districts: Green Park Union, Blain Union, and Perry Joint. West Perry High School, located in Green Park, Tyrone Township, previously served as Green Park Union High School. West Perry Middle School, also located in Green Park, opened in 1967 as Green Park Elementary.
West Perry School District currently operates three elementary schools: Blain, Carroll, and New Bloomfield.
Blain Elementary, located in the borough of Blain, was constructed in 1927 as a grades 1 through 12 school. New Bloomfield Elementary, located in the borough of Bloomfield, was constructed in 1950 as Perry Joint High School. It later served as a middle school from the creation of West Perry School District until 2003, at which time the middle school and Green Park Elementary switched functions. Carroll Elementary, constructed around 1965, is located in Carroll Township along state Route 34 between New Bloomfield and Shermans Dale.
West Perry school colors are green and white, and the mascot is the Mustangs. Green and white were selected because at the time of the 1964 consolidation, Green Park Union (whose colors were green and white) had just purchased new band uniforms and the district did not want to replace them.
West Perry's 1989 football team was the last undefeated team in Pennsylvania not to make the state playoffs, a distinction that the school may hold forever since the playoff format has been massively expanded since then! The West Perry baseball team won consecutive state AA titles in 1979 and 1980. The West Perry boys basketball team reached the state AAA semi-finals in 2006.
School colors for Perry Joint (located in New Bloomfield) were maroon and grey, with the mascot being the Bobcats.
