Out of an abundance of caution related to the potential of weather concerns this afternoon, Central Junior High School will be dismissing students at 12:30 pm. K-2 schools will be dismissed at 1:30, and 3-5 schools will be dismissed at 1:40 pm. Please contact your child’s school if this changes their transportation for this afternoon. Latchkey has informed us that they will also be closing at 4:30 pm due to weather concerns. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. We appreciate your understanding as we look at the safety of our students and staff.
Permission Slips and Waivers for our trip to Elevate must be turned in by the end of the school day on Wednesday 3/15. Permission slips and Waivers were sent home on Monday. PDF's of both documents were posted on the school's Facebook page and Website.
Parents/Guardians,
This is a reminder that Permission Slips and Waivers for our 3rd quarter Incentive Trip to Elevate Trampoline Park must be turned into the office by the end of the school day on Wednesday March 16th. If your student has met the behavior benchmark to be able to attend but does not have the Permission Slip and Waiver turned in, they will stay back at school and participate in an alternative activity. The Permission Slip and Waivers can be found on the School Website and the School Facebook Page. Please call the Central Junior High Office if you have questions.
