Our Middle School Winners for Academic Achievement, RAIDER Pride, and Lion's Citizenship for November




We will see you tomorrow (Saturday, Nov. 23) for the 41st annual craft fair!


The preschool students are learning about measurement this week and had a special guest reader yesterday, Mr.Schrupp! Mr. Schrupp read the students a book about a giant teddy bear and then measured how tall Mr. Schrupp is compared to some of our preschool friends. Some might say Mr. Schrupp is a giant compared to some of the students! The height differences are displayed in the Preschool wing hallway at the Elementary School.





We love seeing students in kindergarten focused on learning and excited about school!

Designs needed to maximize the space for animals of varying sizes and they calculated the area of different animals' exhibits. We love seeing cool learning activities!

Early childhood education is such an important part of a child’s life! At ECFE, one way we teach social skills is by using puppets. Our students love to play with the puppets and like to help them use the skills we’ve learned. Last week they helped our puppet friends Bob and Greenie practice taking turns.



Central Public Schools is looking for input on the next two years of school calendars! Take the short survey to share what days are important to you. https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScQVYyh4M__6a1pM4t6NJHQdRqAg_WO-Jv5_elgHO2BRXOhHw/viewform


Last week, the 2nd graders at the After School Connections program participated in a mock election. They listened to the story “Duck For President” and talked about voting and why it’s important. They tasted chocolate and golden Oreos and then were able to visit an election judge to get their ballot and went to the polling booth to cast their votes. They got I Voted stickers and then graphed the results and discussed what the results showed.
