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.

Election Day is Tuesday, November 3. Centennial voters will decide two separate referendum questions: an operating levy for student learning and daily operations, and a facilities bond for school improvements.

This week’s FAQs explain what would happen if either question does not pass.

Question 1 FAQ: What happens if the operating levy does not pass?

The district would continue making budget reductions and adjustments in future budget cycles. Those decisions would affect the classroom experience, including staffing, curriculum resources and program implementation.

Question 2 FAQ: What happens if the facilities bond does not pass?

The identified facility needs would remain. The district would continue managing them within existing resources. As deferred maintenance and building security systems age, costs covered by the general fund would leave fewer resources available for classroom needs and staffing.

View the video to learn about the operating needs behind Question 1.

View the video to learn more about the facilities planning behind Question 2.

Review the full ballot and locate both school district questions. Find early-voting options or confirm your Election Day polling place at isd12.org/centennial-forward.

In ongoing efforts to gather feedback from stakeholders, the School Board is hosting quarterly Listening Sessions for the public. The first Listening Session of the 2026-2027 school year will be held on November 16, 5:30 p.m. The sessions provide the opportunity for community members, staff, parents, and students to meet informally with board representatives and the superintendent to discuss topics in the schools.

Listening Sessions increase communication and engagement work that reflects the district’s commitment to excellence. Additional sessions to seek input/perspective on topics established by the Board would be scheduled as a special or additional Board Listening Session.
