Clayton County BEST students have created a storywalk for families to engage in.
The storywalk features the book “Dirt Girl” by Jodi Dee. If you would like to participate in the storywalk, please start at the Elkader Library to locate the first page of the book. You will need a phone to scan the two QR codes, one consisting of a map of the pages with collaborating businesses, and the second QR code is a guest book. We ask families to sign the guest book when you have finished the book.
We hope you enjoy the book and look forward to the future books going out!
Thank you to these local businesses for working with us!

We invite you to join us for our annual Veteran's Day Program, honoring the men and women who have served our country and remembering those who have made the ultimate sacrifice in defining our nation. This event is open to the community and we look forward to seeing you all there.
Don't forget our Halloween Parade is TODAY at 2:45 in the Big Gym! Come see all the fun costumes!
Today marks the first official day of high school girls wrestling practice. Here is a schedule to keep you in the loop!
The amount of students involved in after school activities today is phenomenal! We have one gym full of junior high girls basketball and another gym full of junior high wrestlers. The auditorium is in full swing with the cast of the fall play rehearsing and the weight room is packed with the high school girls wrestling team on their first day of practice. What a great day to be a Warrior! Just think, we will have two high school basketball teams added to this schedule in the next couple of weeks and no reason to complain of having nothing to do!
Are you interested in being more involved? Would you like to make the difference in the lives of young adults and help mentor them in competitive sports? If so, we NEED YOU! Central CSD has many coaching opportunities throughout the school year and can always use volunteers to be more involved in our student activities. If you are interested in learning more, please reach out.
Obtaining your Coaching Authorization is a requirement and there are some local options to take advantage of. If hired as a coach, the cost of the coaching authorization will be reimbursed to you upon completing a season as a Central coach.
