There was an electrical fire at the Elementary school that has caused damage. Thankfully no one was injured in the fire.
We are still assessing the damage and starting to clean up.
There will be no school on Monday, May 22nd for Elementary Students. MS/HS will still have school.
Bus pick up and drop off for MS/HS students will be off by about 10 minutes, since no Elementary students will be riding.
Thank you to the fire departments that responded so quickly!
The middle/ high school staff would like to thank the Centerburg PTO, the Church of Christ, and the OSA members for all of their sweet treats this past week for Teachers Appreciation Week! We appreciate YOU ♥️

Middle/High School Families - Please be on the lookout for an upcoming school climate survey. The School Climate Survey is an anonymous survey used to identify school climate issues within our school. Parents will be asked to complete a survey next week. The survey will be sent through final forms to all families of middle and high school students. We ask that you please take a few minutes to complete the survey in an attempt to better understand areas of strength and areas of need so that we can work towards the best possible positive school climate for all families, students and staff. Students and staff will also be asked to complete a survey in the next couple of weeks. Thank you for taking the time to complete this survey.
