Earth Day is

April 22, 2019

Be a part of diverting thousands of pounds of shoes and clothing from local landfills by placing in your school’s bin your gently used shoes, clothing, purses, belts, wallets, hats, ­­­­­caps, backpacks, hard toys, stuffed animals and pots and pans. For every pound collected from you, your school or PTA receives $0.15 per pound. The benefit to you? Neater closets, drawers, toy boxes, and kitchens, and the knowledge that less textile waste will end up in our landfills.

If your school can collect 2,500 lbs or more during Earth Month, World Wear Project will give your school an EXTRA $100. Help out your school by getting your family involved in cleaning out your closets today.




Staff Appreciation Week

May 6th-10th

Staff Appreciation Week will be here before we know it!  Please help us show our Centennial teachers and staff how much they mean to our families  Let’s treat them to a gourmet casserole dinner prepared by Central Market.  When you purchase a casserole, they will receive a casserole of their choice, salad, and chocolate chunk cookies. Cost is $26 and the deadline to purchase is Friday, April 26th.  All participating families will be recognized on the â€œ Thank You” note added to every casserole package.
