We are starting something new and great here at Central. We will be opening a care closet. We have the space and we have the need. This closet will be set-up for us teachers to help provide snacks for students. If a greater need like a winter jacket, snowpants, hats, gloves, or mittens are needed we will be able to utilize the resources we have to help provide it through the care closet. Wrapped snack donations are appreciated as we begin to fill that room. Please send any snacks donations in with your student and have them give it to their teacher. We look forward to fulfilling the needs of our students with the opening of the Central Care Closet.

Students become interactive participants as they learn about how a seed grows to make the pumpkin we just picked.

Mrs. St. Pierre's class takes a break from using their five senses and finding their "perfect" pumpkin to smile for the camera.

Here is a pic of some students doing an activity "Saving Fred" in which they had to problem solve and work with a partner to save "Fred" (a gummy worm) from drowning! :) Lots of laughing, teamwork and problem solving.

Reading And Math Support

Central Elementary has three Intervention Specialist that support qualifying students in math and reading.  Assessment takes place multiple times during the school year to monitor student growth to determine whether continued support by a specialist is necessary.  The start of the school year necessitates the need to assess students so that we are servicing the students with the greatest need. This may mean that students that received support last year may not qualify for support this year. If your child qualifies for support in math or reading, you will be receiving a letter home.

Recently the following information has been sent home with your child.

1. Volunteer Sheet- Help or Chair one of the many activities.
2. We need volunteers to work at Texas Hold'em October 6-9th.
3. Keep collecting BOX TOPS...information being send home about competition
4. Reminder of Fundraiser due October 12th. 4 Options...Charleston Wrap, Sobie Gift Card, Enjoy the City Entertainment Book
or you can opt out by sending a dontation...check made out to Central Elementary P.T.O
