Today, Central Preschool Teachers made it possible for staff members to order lunch out, in order to participate in a local fundraising event for one of our own students. Chelsea Hanson of TD’s Sports Bar & Grill is giving 10% of sales made through tomorrow to the family of Central Third Grader, Eli Belser to help with expenses as he enters his latest battle. Thank you Central Preschool Teachers and most especially to Chelsea and the staff at TD’s!
One week from today, this year's fall production will hold the first of three performances.
A few thoughts from the Director....
"I'm really glad I decided to do this particular show. As soon as I told students we would be doing The Brothers Grimm Spectaculathon, they were super excited. And now 8 weeks worth of rehearsals later, they are still excited. The show is very entertaining and side-splittingly funny!! It is a retelling of the fairy tales but not in the way we are used to seeing them. It's very fast-paced, colorful, and often ridiculous. The cast and crew have been working very hard and I feel we are way ahead of where we usually are at this point. It's been fun watching the students learn and grow and will prove to be worth the time and money to see. I have thoroughly enjoyed directing it. The Brothers Grimm is the 16th play I have directed for Central and it is with mixed emotions that I announce it is also my last. I'm hanging up my director's chair."

One more stop for Central's Student Council members before returning to school... as they helped remove the temporary fencing at the football field. Thank you for all of your hard work today!!!
The Iowa DOT has an ongoing partnership with the citizens of Iowa to help maintain the appearance of our roadsides throughout the state. The Adopt-A-Highway program also helps increase public awareness of environmental needs along Iowa highways by making sections of roadsides available for adoption.
This morning, members of Central’s Student Council helped with highway cleanup on Highway 56, five miles west of Elkader. They participate in the program twice each school year. Nice work, Warriors!
Take advantage of this great opportunity while shopping in Elkader.... and help raise money for Central's Post Prom! It's a WIN, WIN!

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!
