Central Families,
Welcome to Paint Kenowa Green!
Paint Kenowa Green is our Mental Health Awareness Initiative that we run through the month of February. We chose green because the green ribbon is the international symbol for mental health awareness. During this month, we aim to start meaningful conversations about mental health, reduce stigma, and provide support for those who may be struggling.
Through various activities and events, we encourage students, staff, and the community to engage in conversations, raise awareness, and promote mental well-being for everyone. Together, we can create a more understanding and supportive environment for all.
The students and staff at Central will have the opportunity to participate in different activities each week themed around social connections, movement, gratitude, and mindfulness!
Let's Paint Kenowa Green and spread the message of hope and support!
Go Knights!
Central SHINES!
Safety Reminder: Do not use Nolan Ave as a drop off or pick up loop. Our buses cannot safely enter or exit our parking lot with cars lining both sides of the street and our neighbors cannot get in and out of their driveways safely. Please use the loop at the front of the building that was designed for pick up and drop off. Thank you!

Central Families,
I'll be taking summer birthday pictures June 2 - 5. Those will be posted throughout the summer on our Central Facebook page.
Our Capturing Kids' Hearts character trait this month is Integrity: doing the right thing even when no one else is looking. With summer approaching quickly, we're seeing an increase in antisocial behaviors at the school and while students are away from school via social media. I encourage you to take a moment to talk with your student(s) about their behavior and integrity. Give them some ideas of how they can end this school year strong.
I hope you spend your Memorial Day Weekend doing something that is meaningful for you and your family. We'll see you next Tuesday!
Go Knights!
Central SHINES!

Central Families,
Thank you so much for your generosity during Teacher & Staff Appreciation Week! As always, our amazing PTO took great care of us with donuts, massages, pizza (thank you, Bauer Family!) treats, coffee, salad bar lunch and t-shirts (pictured above). We felt seen, appreciated and loved. Thank you for all your many kindnesses.
Please take note of the dates below. Things are wrapping up and it's going to feel like a sprint to the finish from here on out.
5th Graders don't miss your very important Middle School informational meeting on Wednesday night.

TRANSPORTATION BEFORE AND AFTER SCHOOL CAREOur Personal Mastery educational experience has redefined education and has gained attention around the state and nation. Personal Mastery provides your child with personalized attention from teachers. Instead of teaching to a broad group of students without an understanding of their individual strengths and weaknesses, Personal Mastery allows teachers to interact with students individually or in small groups to help them better address their weaknesses. In this way, we strive to help your child reach their full potential.
