Mr. Macken's Message

Centerville Families,


This month, we're focusing on Responsibility. We define responsibility as taking action and understanding how our choices impact ourselves and others. At school, students are practicing responsibility through goal setting, teamwork, active participation, and positive relationships.


Here are a few simple ways to reinforce responsibility at home:

  • Ask your child what responsibility looks like at school and at home.
  • Give each family member a role in completing a household task.
  • Share a time when you demonstrated responsibility or saw it in someone else.
  • Work together to help a neighbor, friend, or family member with a task.


Thank you for partnering with us to help our students grow both in and out of the classroom!


Go Cougars!

Mike Macken

Veterans Day Wall of Honor

Centerville Elementary would like to honor our veterans by creating individual full-sheet posters highlighting those who have served in the United States Armed Forces. These posters will be proudly displayed throughout our school as part of our Veterans Day celebration to show gratitude and respect for their service and sacrifice.


If you or a family member has served, we invite you to share a photo and a few details (name, branch of service, years served) by completing the following form. Centerville Elementary will create a personalized poster for each veteran to display leading up to Veterans Day.

The people and places that support learning

Students learn in different ways. Classroom instruction, small-group learning and specialized services help meet those needs. Centennial’s two referendum questions address both the people who provide that support and the spaces where learning happens. Each question will be decided separately. Approval of one would not provide the funding proposed in the other.

FAQ's

Question 1 FAQ: Would the operating levy reduce class sizes?

Question 1 is intended to help maintain current staffing and class sizes. It would help maintain teachers, programs and student services as operating costs continue to rise.
