LUNCH WITH A LOVED ONE

Dear Centennial Families,

We are so excited to bring back Lunch with a Loved One this year from September 19th - September 23rd! For those who don’t know, Lunch with A Loved One is an exciting chance for all “loved ones” to join their student for lunch and to shop at our Scholastic book fair. 

Since it has been a while, we wanted to share some helpful updates and reminders to help ensure you have a wonderful visit!

Visitors will eat lunch with their student during their assigned grade level lunch time at our special Lunch with a Loved One tables set up throughout the main hall. Students are expected to be back in their grade level by the end of lunch. Please see below for the lunch schedule. Students must have their OWN loved one attending to be able to eat in the hall. 

ALL visitors must show a government issued ID in order to enter the building.  We encourage you to arrive 10-15 minutes early in order to allow time for us to print a visitor badge for you.

Loved ones are welcome to bring lunch for their student to eat in the hallway prior to visiting the bookfair.  We encourage you to participate in our Chick-Fil-A fundraiser! If you purchase lunch from Chick-Fil-A, mention Centennial elementary and 15% of your order will be donated to the school! Students and loved ones are also welcome to purchase lunch from the cafeteria. Lunch is $2.85 for students and $4.50 for adults.
