Peru Central School District Recognizes Art Teacher Greg Badger.
We would like to recognize Middle School Art Teacher Greg Badger for his outstanding work in creating the beautiful mural now displayed on the side of our building beneath the District Office sign.
The mural depicts Peru’s first school building, which was developed during the Great Depression. Construction took place between January 1938 and November 1939, with the first class attending on September 5, 1939.
This project was made possible through funding from the New York State Tobacco Settlement Grant and generous contributions from the Peru Lions Club and the Babbie Rural Farm and Learning Museum.
