Principal's Message
As we start 2nd quarter, I wanted to thank all of parents, students, and staff for all of their efforts, collaboration, and cooperation as we worked together to ensure that our Cyclone family stays as safe and healthy as possible.
Many of you have asked about 2nd semester in regard to which option you would like for your student, Traditional or mySchool Online. We will continue to offer both options for 2nd semester of this school year. Here is a link below that we need you to please complete ONLY if you would like to make a change from your current option. We ask that you please complete it by November 13th so we can make the appropriate changes to be ready for 2nd Semester in January.

Below are some important reminders:

• please make sure to not drop your child(ren) off at school before 8:10am.
• please pull forward for both drop-off and dismissal to ensure a safe and efficient drop-off and pick-up area.

CENMS Mask Fundraiser - Stay Safe and Show your School Spirit
Welcome Cpl. Ioppolo to the Cyclone Family!
My name is Cpl. S. Ioppolo and I am the new School Resource Officer at Centennial Middle School. I have lived on west side of Pasco County my entire life. I also attended grade school and high school in Pasco County. I then attended PHSC and I am finishing my degree at St. Leo University. I have two beautiful daughters, one graduated from Mitchell High School and joined the Army. My other daughter is in 8th grade and attends middle school.
I started at the Sheriff’s Office approximately 8 years ago. In February 2020, I was offered a temporary position at Hudson High School as a School Resource Officer and I knew after a few short weeks how important the role of an SRO truly is. I worked as a patrol deputy until April of this year when I was then officially promoted to SRO Corporal.
When I am not at work, I enjoy biking, kayaking, and hiking trails. I love all animals but especially dogs. I have 3 dogs, a pointer mix, a Golden Retriever, and a Saint Bernard. My goal is to one day backpack through Europe and see as many beautiful places as I can.
