Perry High School is a public high school located in Gilbert, Arizona. It opened on July 23, 2007, due to Chandler Unified School District's year-round schedule. This is Chandler Unified School District's first high school located in Gilbert.Perry is a Wi-Fi enabled school with availability in each classroom, removing the need for designated computer labs by allowing Wi-Fi enabled laptops to be brought into the classrooms. The school's design was based on the layout of Basha High School, another school in the Chandler Unified School District. In fact, the schools look extremely similar. All the buildings are the same except Perry doesn't have an "H" building behind the "F" building that Basha does.
