Officer Mitch stopped in to help out in Mrs. Bente's class today. Always a great day to see Officer Seitz in the building!
Central Graduates, we need your help! The Class of 2023 is looking to collect a few more graduation robes to reuse rather than purchasing new robes each year. Robes will continued to be stored and reused each year at the school. If you are able to help, please let us know. Any gently used graduation gowns may be dropped off at the district office at your earliest convenience. Thank you for your cooperation in helping us be thrifty and environmentally friendly as we look to celebrate this year's graduating class!
National FFA Dress Up Days continue and it seems we have a small group of farm animals roaming the halls at Central today!

When you see Mrs. Belser, please be sure to let her know how happy we are to have her back here at Central!
The 6th graders got to go on their Osborne Survival field trip today as part of their unit reading The Hatchet. Student learned survival skills and got to build their own shelters!

Art fundamentals kicked off another year of “Workshop Wednesday” last week with photographer, Jillian Webb Herrmann! It’s much appreciated for her to share her time and talents with the high school art students. They even got in a mini photo shoot to explore different lighting and how it effects images.
