A SPECIAL THANK YOU

We want to take a moment during this very busy time of year to say "THANK YOU, YOU'RE DOING A GOOD JOB!" to all our Centennial teachers, nurse, staff, and substitutes.  

Please take a few minutes to watch THIS VIDEO which perfectly articulates the appreciation we have for those working so hard to give our Comets some semblance of structure and normalcy during these challenging and uncertain times.

YOU'RE DOING AN AMAZING JOB.  WE SEE YOU.  WE APPRECIATE YOU.

PTA REFLECTIONS RESULTS

Centennial Comets came through with creativity!  PTA received 113 Reflections entries in all 6 art categories! 

 Students expressed their artistic skills in literature, visual arts, photography, dance choreography, music composition and film production  by conveying the theme "I Matter Because." Comets indeed demonstrated how "you matter" and how "others matter to you."

Congratulations to the 26 Comets who received the Award of Excellence and will move to the next round of judging at the district level.  We'd also like to recognize the students who received Awards of Merit and Honorable Mentions.

We're so proud of all our Comets!  Here are a few additional noteworthy points about the PTA Reflections participation:

3rd graders rocked it with the highest number of entries overall. Your leadership is impressive! 

2nd graders crushed it with the highest number of finalists moving forward. Way to show your skills, 2nd grade! 

Mrs. Davison's 1st grade class had the highest number of entries per classroom.  Super job!


Big thanks to the community, parent and teacher volunteers who helped judge the Reflections entries!  We couldn't do it without you!

COLLEGE, CAREER, & MILITARY WEEK

Every year at Centennial we celebrate College, Career and Military Week!. This year, we need your help to make this week as exciting as possible! 

Think you have an exciting career to share with our students? Use THIS LINK to record a 5-10 minute Flip Grid video about your career that our students can watch in January during College, Career and Military Week!

Be sure to include your career title in the display name so our students know what you are presenting about!

Feel free to share this link with any friends or family members who may want to participate, but for safety reasons, we ask that you do not post the link anywhere that is accessible to the public. 

Not sure what to say? Check out the Flip Grid description for some questions you might answer! If you have any questions, please contact our counselor at Alison.leven@pisd.edu
