Let's take a moment to remember a special Perkins Pirate, Keegan Plue, who died during his sophomore year on April 3, 2016.
Keegan would have graduated tonight with the Class of 2019. Forever in our hearts, always loved, always missed.
Perkins High Schools students, teachers, and staff today marked the one-year anniversary of the death of student Stone Ambos. He was a special kid who touched so many students, teachers, staff, and community. Stone, we miss you and love you.
