Happy Spring!
We are soon going to hang up our "Recycled Bottle Cap Mural" in the library. This was created by our Fall Art Club and will become a permanent installation in our library. The mural is dedicated to our "CES GARDEN STARS". Centerville was officially given the title of a Green School last Spring so this is a symbol of that achievement
