Message from the Principal
Dear Central Road Families,
Thank you for supporting a fantastic start to the new school year! The school year is off to a smooth start. We have enjoyed every minute back with your children.
Parent Orientation times have been finalized. Parent Orientation is on Wednesday, August 28th. The time slots are as follows:
6:00-6:45 p.m.- Kindergarten AM & PM and Grades 3 -4
6:45-7:30 p.m.- Grades 5-6
7:30-8:15 p.m.- Grades 1-2
During orientation, we will have all of our parent/teacher conference sign-ups in the MPR. This will allow families to come and sign-up for multiple classrooms with more ease. Please bring your schedules for November 25th and 26th, so you are able to sign-up.
The district has adopted a new guide for food, as a part of keeping our students safe at school. This new policy is included in detail as an attachment to this email. Please note, all school parties will be food free this school year. As in the past, birthday celebrations will also remain food free.
District 15 has partnered with Harper College to continue to offer English as a Second Language (ESL) courses for adults. Please see the attached flier for additional information.
Warmest regards,
Patti Van Winkle
Principal

Join our Central Road PTA
We encourage all of our families to join the PTA to support our school.
YOU GIVE ~ WE GIVE
Each year, become an advocate for your child through the PTA.
YOU GIVE ~
Every school year we collect $5/$10 in membership, but these dollars do not equal what we give … In fact, this covers less than half of one of our school assemblies!
WE GIVE ~
For all of the events and support over the year, we need each family to sell/buy 3 Fundraiser Donation Tickets. If we could reach that simple goal, we would achieve our financial goals to provide:
- Six forms of communication - Social Media, e-blasts, text messages
- Parties, social events
- School assemblies, field trips
- Teacher support/appreciation
- Student support/appreciation
- Community and family recognition - Vet’s, Grands, etc.
- Clubs support
- And much more!
Please consider joining our PTA by completing this form. Forms and payments can be dropped off during Parent Orientation in the MPR.
