Central CSD

The 2nd graders gave the third graders a Christmas look and find to complete for a kindness activity that was started in preschool!

How cute are these sELFies!

Thank you to Mrs. Follon for the great music this morning!

Did you play an instrument when you were in school? Do you have it laying around and miss playing? Come join in the music-making fun and perform your favorite winter and holiday music in the entryway of the school. If you would like to perform with Central Band students or with other community members before school, please contact Ms. Wilming at lwilming@central.k12.ia.us with your name, instrument, and preferred date of performance! We look forward to making music with you. Happy Holidays from the Central Band department! Ms. Wilming
