This October, we’re celebrating Boo-tiful Attendance! Our schoolwide goal is 97% attendance or higher, and each week we’ll recognize the class with the highest attendance in each grade-level group: TK/K, 1st/2nd, 3rd/4th, and 5th/6th. Winning classes will earn a special prize and, of course, bragging rights for the week!

Being at school each day helps our Tigers learn, grow, and stay connected to their classroom community. At the same time, we absolutely do not want students coming to school when they are sick. Our message is simple: If you’re healthy and able to be at school, we want you here! Every school day matters, and every Tiger helps their class get closer to our 97% goal.

🩺 Stay Healthy, Century!

We’ve had quite a few illnesses going around, so here’s a friendly reminder from the Health Office! Please keep your student home if they have a fever of 100°F or higher, repeated vomiting or diarrhea, significant cold symptoms, or are too sick to comfortably participate in the school day.

Students may return when they are fever-free for 24 hours without medication and, for vomiting/diarrhea, are able to tolerate food and liquids with symptoms improved.

🧼 Help stop the spread! Please remind your student to:

• Wash hands often with soap and water

• Cover coughs and sneezes

• Avoid sharing food and drinks

• Keep hands away from their eyes, nose, and mouth

Thank you for helping us keep Century Elementary healthy and happy! 💛

If you are interested in having your 4th–6th grade student tested for the GATE Program, please complete the attached Parent Referral Form. Forms are due to the office ONLY by the end of the school day on Friday, October 9th.

Please do not return GATE permission slips to Mrs. Cox’s classroom, as collecting forms during instructional time can interrupt learning.

After referral forms are received, permission slips will be sent home with students. A signed permission slip is required for your child to participate in GATE testing. Permission slips are due by Friday, October 23rd.

Please note:

• Some students may qualify for GATE based on their state test scores. This determination will be made at a later date once all data becomes available.
• This letter may be received after the referral deadline. If you are interested in GATE for your child, it is important to submit the Parent Referral Form regardless. If your child qualifies automatically, you will be notified, and they will not need to take the test.
• If your child participated in the GATE program last year, they are already qualified and do not need to re-test or qualify again.

Important GATE Dates:

• Parent Referral Form Due: Friday, October 9th
• Testing Permission Slip Due: Friday, September 23rd
• Tentative Testing Date: TBD

The Birthday Marquee is available for families to recognize their child's birthday! Help celebrate your child's birthday by wishing him/her a Happy Birthday on the school's marquee. Birthday wishes will be posted for a week. Sign up and pay $20 online.
