Tonya Meyer, registered dental hygienist through the I-smile program, visited the preschoolers today to offer free dental screenings and fluoride applications. The preschoolers learned that they have 20 teeth and were very intrigued by her tools that she used.
Ann McCorkindale came back for JA today. Fourth graders played a game to learn about expenses, revenue, profit and losses by running a hot dog stand!
February is National Children's Dental month. I-Smile coordinator and dental hygienist, Rachel Sender, came and visited Central's 2nd and 3rd graders for dental education on February 5th. Rachel will return at the beginning of March to offer the dental sealant program to these same students.
Central LEAD students used their leadership skills to support our very own Central Warrior family and Eli. Central LEAD students, Avery Fette and Madelyn Pope held a Valentine’s Day photo op on February 24 at Founders Park and raised money for the Belser family. Additionally, we had another group of LEAD students make a yellow and gold tie blanket for Eli!

School counselors create a tremendous impact on students in achieving school success and planning for life after high school. Today kicks off National School Counseling Week and here at Central, we are fortunate to have a dedicated consultant who provides invaluable support to our students and their families. Mrs. Angie Bergan serves as our Guidance Counselor and has been working with the Central Community School District since 2017. No longer being shared with Starmont Schools, she became a full-time Warrior in the Fall of 2022.
Mrs. Bergan comes with many years of experience in counseling and works with our students to remove barriers in learning, helping them address academic concerns, their career options, all while trying to manage their social and emotional skills. She assists students daily, fostering relationships, helping with class schedules, and creating an environment to promote the best learning atmosphere possible. She is an essential part of our student success! Please help give a BIG THANK YOU to Central's Guidance Counselor and show our appreciation this week, especially!
Have you met Mrs. Bergan? How has she helped you and/or your student? If Mrs. Bergan has helped you or your family in any way, we would love to hear about it.
Central will be hosting the First Round of Class 1A Regional Girls Basketball this Thursday. Make plans to cheer on our Lady Warriors as they take on the Tripoli Panthers. Game time is 7:00 and tickets must be purchased in advance to attend. No season passes will be accepted.
