School History
David A. Perdue Primary opened in August 2003 and is named for one of Houston County's most noted Superintendents. It was built to serve students in Grades PreK-2 and to relieve over-crowding at David A. Perdue Elementary School. Mrs. Linda Horne served as the first Principal (from 2003-2009).
The dedication ceremony was held on November 9, 2003. Principal, Mrs. Linda Horne, cut the ribbon. Members of Mr. Perdue's family, Superintendent Danny Carpenter, school board members, teachers, and staff, as well as numerous parents and students were in attendance.
