Dalton Hall is a first year teacher who graduated from Centerburg in 2022 and MVNU in 2026. He loves being able to make meaningful connections with students and help them learn practical educational and life skills. His fiance is a third grade teacher at Fredericktown. He is very excited to be back at Centerburg Elementary and looks forward to having a great school year!

In Science class the third graders learn about the color, luster, and texture of rocks. They find rocks around the house to bring in or special ones then get to share with their classmates.

For the month of October we had an experience reward for all students. To participate the students needed to have no major referrals and less than three minor referrals. Grades 3-5 played Kickball and Grades K-2 played tag games, relay races, and a dance party.

Fifth-grade students have been bringing history to life with their Maya Mask Projects! After learning about Maya culture, religion, social structure, and daily life, students designed their own Maya-inspired masks. Each student incorporated meaningful colors, symbols, and details into their design and connected their creative choices to what they have learned throughout our Maya unit. This hands-on project has been a fun way for students to combine creativity with their understanding of this ancient civilization!

Each year the COJFD does Fire Safety with our third graders. The students enjoyed the discussion and getting an up close look at a fire truck and ambulance.

Lt. Wheeler came to Centerburg Elementary to talk with 1st graders about fire safety. He takes about the importance of having a family plan in case of an emergency including a meeting place. He told us the importance of getting out of a house immediately and not got back in for anything. He showed us what a firefighter looks like and what they sound like when breathing air from an air tank. He also made a video of what life is like at a firehouse to include a tour of the trucks, kitchen, sliding down a pole, and firefighter bedrooms. Including a picture of a cat he rescued from a fire.
