Let's try this one more time. We were notified this afternoon that tomorrow's rescheduled date for spring pictures won't work for them due to an overlooked conflict on their part . Spring pictures have now been rescheduled again. This time for WEDNESDAY, APRIL 9TH. Sorry for the confusion and inconvenience this may have caused.

There will not be spring pictures today due to the photographer not being able to get here due to road conditions. They have been rescheduled for tomorrow, Thursday, April 3rd.

The Anatomy class traveled to USD's Anatomy Lab today for a full tour of their facility. They experienced hands-on, first hand learning about the human body, it's organs, and pathology. They were a fantastic bunch of kids who were very engaged, respectful to the presenters, and had great questions to strengthen their understanding of what was being discussed. Some Chic-Fil-A or Qdoba afterwards was a nice way to wrap up the trip!

Softball store now open. Support the girls as they start a new chapter at Centerville School:

Last week, the elementary had an awards assembly to recognize their hard work for the month of February. The winners of the Character Counts award were treated to ice cream and slushies with Mr. Fischer today. Keep up the hard work!





The Centerville Elementary took part in the Kids Heart Challenge put on by the American Heart Association. The students raised just over $3000 for this great cause. The student that raised the highest dollar amount in each class had the opportunity to spray some silly string on Mr. Fischer. Great work students!
