🍽️ Help Central School Tackle Student Lunch Debt 🍽️
At Central School, we proudly serve a resilient community where many of our students rely on free or reduced lunch. As a Title I school, we’re committed to making sure no child goes hungry, but the reality is—our school lunch debt has grown beyond what we can manage alone.
There are many reasons this number gets so high, but we are reaching out to ask for your help.
We’re seeking generous local businesses, organizations, and individuals who can step in and make a difference. Whether you’re able to cover a portion or make a full sponsorship, your support will directly impact our students' daily well-being and peace of mind.
📍Every dollar donated goes toward feeding a child.
📍Every act of kindness makes a lasting difference.
If you or your business would like to contribute, please contact Central School at (850) 983-5640 or email us at CSOffice@santarosa.k12.fl.us.
Let’s show our Jaguars the power of community. No act of kindness is too small! 🐾
Central School will have office hours from 8:00 to 2:00 in the summer, closed for the week of July 4th.
Please call (850)983-5640 if you have any questions!
Attention Class of 2025! Diplomas are now available for pickup! ‼️
Please note that educational rights transfer to the student at 18, according to federal privacy laws. So, the graduate must be the one to pick up the diploma or will need to provide written permission for someone else to pick it up on their behalf.
🌟 Attention, Jaguar Families! 🌟
As we gear up for the Spring Testing Season, please save these important dates! 🗓️ Let's motivate our students to put forth their best effort on these assessments.
Students should report to their 1st-period class for attendance purposes before being dismissed to testing locations. Students who arrive late may have to test on the retake date.
