Central CSD

Congratulations to our Worthy Warriors for the week! Worthy Warriors are selected each week kindergarten through fifth grade. Students chosen have gone above and beyond in showing our Caring, Commitment, and Safety expectations. Keep up the great work...and GO WARRIORS!

As we begin the official countdown to graduation day, please help us celebrate Central's Class of 2024! Congratulations to Senior - Joel Thiese Jr.!

Educators have one of the most important but difficult jobs in the world. Second to parents and guardians, teachers spend a good majority of time with our kids. Some days, these same teachers are the first to say good morning, the first to notice what a child may need or may be missing, the first to provide comfort, and many of these teachers leave a mark in the lives of their students that never gets forgotten. Everyone who looks back at their childhood, their school days and their education, it's not usually the methods or lessons they remember, but the TEACHERS! Teachers are the heart of the education system and we are so incredibly thankful for our tribe here at Central! "It's the teacher that makes the difference, not the classroom." - Michael Morpurgo Teacher Appreciation Week kicks off today and this is the perfect time to show teachers and educators how much we value the time they give to our families. Please take some time over the next few days to let your favorite teachers know how much they mean to your student(s) and family. Whether it's a simple thank you, a high five, or a note of gratitude, please let your teachers know that we are thinking of them, most especially this week. #TeacherAppreciationWeek2024

Congrats to the Central band and choir on amazing performances at State Large Group Friday. The band received a division I, superior, rating! Thank you for all the hard work, Central musicians! We are so proud of you!

Warrior Events for the WEEK!

2nd graders have been busy building towers in science! We have been talking about solids and what would make a structure solid and strong. Then they tested their towers out to see if they would withstand in the wind!

Happy School Lunch Heroes Day! Central is lucky to have great ladies who cook and serve our students with nutritious meals. Thank you!

Congratulations to the 2024-2025 newly elected Central Student Council Officers and Members!

Looks like a beautiful evening to be on the course! Good Luck to our Warrior Golfers this afternoon!

The High School Choir and Band will be performing at the Iowa High School Music Association State Large Group Festival on Friday, May 3rd. This year, we'll be heading to West Delaware in Manchester for the event. With a panel of tough judges this year, our performers have been working hard for the challenge. Your support and well wishes would mean the world to them. We would love to see some familiar faces in the audience!

With recent weather, Central's Earth Day activities were postponed to this past Wednesday. Students in grades 7-12 helped with with various projects in the community. Students worked at Motor Mill, Osborne, parks and around the Central Preschool building to clean up trash and groups also worked along local roads to help with ditch cleanup. Thank you to all the supporters who made this possible for our students. #EarthDayEveryDay

Indoor recess can be discouraging for students but playing games like Clue and Spoons with teachers make it more fun! Students also enjoyed building on to their Dojo Islands.

A BIG THANK YOU to Ryan Panuska for visiting the welding classes on Tuesday. Ryan specializes in repair and fabrication and travels all over the country. He demonstrated stainless steel TIG welding and tools and new technology specific to the mobile welding trade. Thanks for taking time out of your day to spend with Central students!

Central's hatchlings enjoying their 6th grade education. Soaking up the knowledge.

Varsity Boys got the opportunity to participate in an invitational at Sunnyside Country Club in Waterloo today. It’s our 1st year with many more to come. It was awesome for them to have the chance to play a very nice, challenging course. They all held their heads high and just had fun!!

Central's Business Office was surprised today with some special littles delivering May Day Baskets! If this picture could talk, you would hear the cutest story! Thank you kiddos for the treats! It won't be long... and these little Warriors will be leaving daycare and heading to Central!

Mr. Trenkamp had some visitors today to wish him Happy School Principals' Day! Sixth Grade Students made cards for Mr. Trenkamp, which had to include creativity, color and show effort. They left their principal with a stack of good things to read!

Good Luck to the Central Boys Golf Team as they head to Waterloo this morning to compete in the Sunnyside Invitational. Go WARRIORS!
