A note from the principal . . .
Hi, Centennial Families!
This week finds us celebrating our amazing Centennial Teachers!
Thank you for all the love, respect, and encouragement you are pouring out on them; it truly makes a difference!
We are so grateful that OSTP testing is now completed for all 3rd - 5th graders with the exception of a few make-ups! Students, we are so proud of you for your hard work and perseverance, every day...not just on testing day! (I'll be reaching out to 3rd-5th-grade families soon with details about how to access those assessment results!
Please spread the word: We are excited to welcome incoming PK & K Parents tonight!
Doors Open at 5:15 tonight for PK/K Parent Information Night at Centennial for 2023-2024 (5:30-6:30)!
Pre-Kindergarten parents, please meet in the cafeteria.
Kindergarten parents, please meet in the media center.
It will be most helpful if you are able to get a sitter for your incoming PK / K student, however, if needed, we have some volunteers who will be available to support them on the Tot Lot while you are meeting with your teachers.
Finally, thank you to all parents who are assisting in the Cafeteria! To become a "Lunchroom PAL": please Sign Up Here!
We appreciate you!
With kind regards,
Ellie Webb, Principal
