Principals Message:
We wanted to wish all our Eagle community a Happy New Year.
We hope you all had a restful and relaxing Winter Break. We look forward to seeing all of you back on Tuesday, January 2nd, for the start of school. We have been working hard to get the building reading for your return. You will notice new bollards installed, halls and classrooms cleaned, and all the work done over break. We are eager to continue working in partnership, helping each student demonstrate high academic standards in an equitable, supportive school culture, graduate college, and be career-ready. It will be a great year to be Eagles!
Remember, "Once an Eagle, Always an Eagle" at CHS!

Reminders:
Renaissance Star Math and ELA Assessment Results Mailed Home with Report Card. Included with the Trimester 1 Report Cards being sent home this week are student Renaissance Star Math and ELA assessment results. CHS Students will take the STAR Math and ELA Assessment three times this year through their Advisory classes. We use the results of these assessments to measure general achievement in reading and math and to determine individual student learning needs. As students take the assessment over the year, it will also show student learning growth and identify skills they can work on to improve their learning. It is essential to understand that these test scores provide only one picture of how a student is doing in school. You can Scan the QR Code or see https://www.renaissance.com/star-scores/ for more general information. If you have any questions, please get in touch with your student's teacher.
Be a Good Neighbor to our Centennial Community. We always want our Centennial Community to know that we respect our community and show what it means to be and Eagle with our positive actions.
- Please be respectful to all our CHS Neighbors and community around the school.
- Be mindful of the traffic congestion and the safety of everyone on Haig Drive, 174th, Marie and 181st, particularly during the busy pick-up and drop-off times.
- Do not blocking driveways or parking in marked No Parking Areas posted at dismissal and arrival.
ParentSquare will become Centennial's Official District Communication Jan. 2024. Centennial School District is excited to fully implement ParentSquare - our official centralized District communication platform. The District Remind messaging application will sunset Friday, Dec. 15, 2023 and we encourage all our families to register and connect with us via ParentSquare.
ParentSquare will serve as our District messaging platform, which offers an array of digital communication tools, including email, text, phone messaging, forms and much more. Almost all Centennial families have already registered to ParentSquare – placing us at a 96% contactable rate of our families.
Using this platform streamlines District messaging to a single source for our community. Ensuring reliable communication channels is important for our community, and we want our families to know they can count on us to provide them with the tools needed to stay connected with content that relates to them and is easy to use.
Check out the ParentSquare video tutorial below. We also encourage families to update their contact information in Synergy to ensure you have your name, phone number, address, emails and home language updated.
Reminder:
