My name is Becca McIlvenna. I will be a para at the school this year. My children are Gus and Grace, who have both graduated. Beebs (11th), Maddie (9th), Sam (7th), Cena (5th) and Bine (2nd) who will all be attending Centerville School this year. In my free time I enjoy hiking, being outdoors with my family and attending my children's sporting events.
I have been a stay at home mom for twenty years. I have spent some of those years homeschooling. I am looking forward to being part of the Centerville School this year.

Welcome back to our staff as a paraprofessional!
Hello! I'm Megan Shubeck and I will be a teacher's aide this coming school year. I held this position previously in Centerville along with being an assistant track coach prior to the birth of my youngest son. Now that he is in school full-time I'm excited to be back in the school working with students. My background is in math education so that is naturally my favorite subject to assist students with! My husband John is currently the head track coach and I enjoy helping out there when I can. Triple jump is my favorite event to coach.
John and I live on a farm just outside of town with our 4 kids who all attend Centerville. Emery will be a junior, Eli a freshmen, Anna 6th grade, and Audie 1st grade. When I'm not running around to kids' events and activities I enjoy finding time to lift weights, hike, mountain bike, or really anything that can let me be active outside.

Centerville School is excited to announce the return of "Farm to School" within our school lunch program. We are seeking local producers/partners who are willing to donate, volunteer, or share their knowledge with us. We look forward to partners interested in helping our students enjoy fresh, locally grown products from produce to meat! Please see the attached flyer for more information and contact the school's main office if you are interested in helping us out. THANK YOU to all of the producers who made donations last year!
Excited to introduce our new Title I teacher!
My name is Jamey Strom, and I am excited to return this year as the Title I teacher. I have 14 years of teaching experience in a variety of elementary contexts, and I most recently taught first grade in Centerville for five years before taking some time away to stay home with our three daughters, Addy, Elly, and Cally. My husband Peter works for Beck’s Hybrids seed company. I enjoy reading, quilting, trips to the Black Hills, and being involved with my church. I am excited to reconnect with the students, staff, and families of the Centerville School District and to support the elementary students and teachers for another great year of learning and growth!
