Many have inquired about retrieving items from lockers that didn't make it home prior to the shutdown. At this time, we must keep the building closed. As soon as the Governor relaxes the "stay home" order, we'll structure a safe plan for locker clean-out/item retrieval.

Teachers have put together a Spirit Week to make this week of the shutdown a little extra fun and special. Please see details under the News section. Share your photos throughout the week! Enjoy!

Please see recently added information regarding ideas for exercise and nutrition under the News section of Central's site. Stay healthy and well!

A link to an updated resource page for shutdown engagement opportunities has been added to the News section. Resources have been organized by grade level and content area.
Happy at home learning!

An updated list of resources supporting At Home Learning opportunities has been added to the News section of Central's site.

An email was sent to families yesterday introducing a few quality resources for exploring and supporting learning at home. This has been added to the News section of Central's site. Teachers may be sending additional ideas/challenges in the upcoming days for you to choose from.

Our PTO food drive is going well. Students climbed the ladder today, earning new playground equipment. A final push may result in Mr. Hamilton getting duct taped to the wall, and if we really work hard, Pie the Teachers! All items benefit the RPI and McMillan food pantries.
