Good Afternoon Central School Families,
This is Mr. Lay, principal of Central School, with an important message for parents and families. We are conducting a lockdown drill at school today as part of our regular emergency drill process as required by state law. We believe it’s important for students to know exactly what to do in an emergency and these practice drills enhance their safety. Again, all students are safe, and this is simply drill. Thank you for your understanding and support

Spring testing starts tomorrow, and we want all of our Jaguars to be prepared and confident! Please help your student have a great day by keeping these important reminders in mind:
✔️ Get a good night’s sleep
✔️ Eat a healthy breakfast
✔️ Arrive to school on time
✔️ Bring a positive attitude and do your best
We are proud of our students and know they will shine! Thank you for your support in helping them succeed. 🐾💛
