Kindergarten Registration:
Under new state law, children must be 5 years old as of the first day of school to be eligible for Kindergarten. Centerburg starts on August 19, 2026 for the upcoming year. This is a change from previous years.
The office is accepting pre-registration now for our Kindergarten Registration days of April 7-8. Please call 740-625-6488 to schedule and you will be given a day and time for registration.
Nerf Night is this Friday!! We are in desperate need for a few volunteers to help us with registration at the beginning of the event. The time commitment would be 6:15-7pm. Duties include checking in guests, giving instructions, and collecting money from walk-ins. This is a perfect opportunity to come and share the excitement of Nerf Night with our students!

All Kids Bike Program for K & 1
Dear Kindergarten & 1st Grade Families,
Starting Monday, March 2nd, we will be incorporating biking activities into our Physical Education classes as part of the All Kids Bike program. To help keep all students safe, please send your child to school with their bike helmet on their designated gym day if they would like to use their own. If they forget or do not have a helmet, one will be provided for them at school.
Please remember to complete and return the All Kids Bike family survey by Wednesday, February 25th.
Thank you for your support in keeping our young riders safe and helping make this program a success!
Sincerely,
Mr. Dodrill
Physical Education Teacher
