Message from the Principal
Dear Central Road Families,
As the end of the school year comes racing towards us, I wanted to remind you that kindergarten students' last attendance day is Friday, May 31st. This is also the day that the PTA will host a family event, the Fun Fair, from 6:00 to 8:00 pm.
The last day of attendance for students in our first through sixth grades is Monday, June 3. This will be a half day of attendance, with dismissal at 11:45 am.
The nurse would like me to remind parents that medications (including prescriptions, inhalers, epi-pens, and over-the-counter meds) must be picked up from school by an adult before the last day of school. If you are unable to do this, please call the school secretary to arrange a pick-up time. Any medications that are left in school after August 1st will be discarded.
We had perfect weather for our annual Field Day on Monday. Many thanks to the generous turnout of parents who assisted with the stations. Ms. Graf had the whole event humming like a finely tuned instrument. Please enjoy some pictures from the grand event!
This past Friday, some of the graduating high school seniors who attended here returned to Central Road walk the halls of their old elementary school. They were applauded by the students who lined the hallway, and greeted by some of the teachers they knew while they were here. The moment was captured below.
Mrs. VanWinkle will return from her leave next week. She has been working very closely with Mr. Mauro and with me, always accessible and completely invested in Central Road. It has been a pleasure to get to know the students, staff, and parents of this remarkable school.
Sincerely,
Melissa Sabatino
Interim Principal

Matt Wilhelm, Master Bike Athlete
The PTA generously engaged Matt Wilhelm to provide an awe-inspiring display of athletics and artistry on a bike. His stunts were astounding, and his message was clear: Do not wound with words or actions-- Kindness Rocks!
