The Central Elementary School Track & Field Day turned into an Indoor Activity Day due to the weather but it was still a ton of fun! Second Grade Ms. Ackermann summed up the day well:
"A huge pat on the back to Darrin Fox and Charlie Gove and to those behind the scenes that supported you in making this happen. I don't think we could have asked for better. The joy, energy, and enthusiasm in our hallways was definitely something to celebrate. Everyone went home tired and happy. Our kids worked hard and gave us so many wins this year. Thanks for giving them a chance to play hard. Bad weather isn't anything to a Raider!"
We will be celebrating the class of 2025 at the Graduation Ceremony tomorrow (Friday, May 23). The ceremony will take place in the Varsity Gym at 6 p.m. with doors opening at 5 p.m. No tickets required for entry.

Middle School students got to participate in the annual kickball tournament today! Since the weather didn't cooperate, the tournament was held in the Field House and everyone had a great time.
Each spring semester, students in the Draw, Paint, Print class take part in a vibrant community art project at the 212 underpass. After developing original 6x6 foot mural designs throughout the semester, students present their concepts for approval by the city council. Once approved, groups of 2 to 5 students work together to bring their visions to life on the concrete walls. This annual collaboration has become a celebrated tradition, and after four years of dedicated work, the entire west-facing side of the underpass is now complete, transformed into a striking mural gallery that showcases student creativity and community spirit.
A fun fact about the project: all murals are painted using only five base colors (red, yellow, blue, black, and white.) Students custom mix their palettes, resulting in a wide range of unique hues and tones!
Community members are encouraged to take a walk through the underpass and experience the colorful collection of murals up close. It’s a free, outdoor gallery that reflects the talent, passion, and stories of our local young artists and is well worth the visit.
Students at Central Elementary had a great time welcoming some VIPs into school lunch last week!
