Centerburg Elementary Newsletter - Nov/Dec 2025
From the Principal - Mr. Thompson
Please check PowerSchool often to keep informed of you child's progress in each of his/her classes. If you need help logging in to PowerSchool, please contact the school.
*Parents please send a note in the planner or to attendance.el@centerburgschools.org for any and all going home changes. After school activities have begun and we need a note if your child is staying after school. One note for the season/year of the activity is all that is necessary. We do not always get a roster of students staying after school from the advisors/coaches.*
Car Loop - Please make sure that you are not blocking the bus loop driveways when waiting in the car loop and the driveways. Let cars in and out of handicap parking spaces. No need to come an hour before dismissal. The whole dismissal process is done in 15 minutes.
Kindergarten Thanksgiving Parade!
The Kindergarteners enjoyed making decorations and parading through the school the day before Thanksgiving break. Pete the Cat joined us from PTO. We are Thankful!
Welcome New Staff!
Tiffani Brewster is originally from southern West Virginia and graduated from Marshall University in 2023. After graduation she moved to Ohio, where she has lived and worked before joining Centerburg this school year. Tiffani chose to become a school psychologist because she loves advocating for students.
When she isn’t working, you can probably find her outside hiking with friends or her dog, Goose. She likes hammocking and collects plants and vinyl records. She also enjoys learning about Appalachian history and culture.
