YOU'RE INVITED TO DINO GEORGE ON FEB 14, 2023

Please join us for a DINO-mite event on Valentine's Day as Centennial Elementary PTA presents to our campus for the FIRST TIME EVER Dinosaur George, a traveling museum!

Dinosaur George is a paleontologist with a traveling museum who provides a fun, exciting, and educational environment for students of all grade levels. The exhibit includes fossils of mammals, dinosaurs and sea creatures from all around the world.

This year we will also be opening the museum to invite parents and families during after school hours (5-7pm). This event is free and open to the public. Weather permitting, Snowies Sno Cone truck will be making an appearance with food items available for purchase!

Families are also welcome to shop with students during these hours. Students can also pre-order items using the order form that will be going home with your child next week!

 20% of all final sales will be donated back to Centennial PTA. 

We hope you can DIG in and join us Tuesday, February 14th for this event! Our goal is to foster student development by engaging our entire school community including students, parents, teachers and school administration.
