Central students have been putting our new kitchen to use! Students have been busy learning how to make hot chocolate, popcorn, scrambles eggs, hash browns, and hot dogs.

Reminder Central Elementary CCS assembly today at 1:00. Come celebrate our students with us!

I have received some questions about lights being left on in our construction zone. The lights are left on for security reasons. Larson Construction did the same thing in Phase #1.

Lunch date today with 3rd grade. Conversation about my dog canceling school, their pets, and Mrs. Follon dancing to the news we are letting out early!
As an FYI, did you know we serve 58,500 lunches in a school year? Great job Central cooks!


Central will dismiss at 12:30. All evening activities are canceled.

Look how great the SOS students are doing in the preschool building. They are doing great with our kids- initiating conversations, playing, reading, and leading small groups.
