Good Afternoon, The CEA team and Administration have discussed and agreed that we will hold our first negotiation meeting on 1/06/22 at 1:00 PM. We look forward to meeting and negotiating with you all this year.

Good afternoon families, We are working closely with public health to understand the intensity of the COVID surge we are experiencing in our community. We are using this information to decide how long we will be on remote learning. At this time, there has been no decision made. We will update families as soon as we can so you can make plans beyond Thursday. Thank you for your understanding.

Good evening Centennial Families, There are meals available while we are on remote learning. Meals can be picked up on the east side of the school from 11:00-12:00 tomorrow.

Good afternoon Centennial Families, To support remote learning this week, we will be distributing computers to students who need them in the Middle School and High School. Families can pick up these computers beginning today at 2:00 on the High School side of the building. Preschool families can pick up materials for their students in the front of the school beginning today at 2:00 as well. K-4 packets will be available for pick-up in the front of the school beginning at 3:00. We will be distributing materials until 4:00 today. If you cannot make it to the school during the distribution time, just call the school to schedule a pick-up. Thank you for your patience and support.

Good morning Centennial families, There is a post-holiday surge of COVID cases in our community that is impacting the health and safety of our students and staff. Due to staff shortages and the increased risk, we feel it is in everyone's best interest to switch to remote learning at this time. We will be on remote learning for the rest of this week. The Centennial staff will prep for remote learning today and coordinate with public health and other agencies to decide how long the remote learning period should be to make it safely through this time. We will update families often with more information. Thank you.
