Dorney Park Trip for 8th Grade Students Dorney Park Trip for 8th Grade Students

Permission slips and money collected 3/10-3/14

Hello everyone,


Log College's annual 8th grade trip to Dorney Park will be here before we know it, so I wanted to share a reminder to serve as a Save the Date.


The trip will occur on June 4. This year's cost will be $63 for students and $75 for chaperones. (Note: a few chaperone forms had the wrong amount and were mistakenly distributed - $75 is correct). Permission slips and medical information forms were distributed to students last week. They must be returned for all attending students between 3/10-3/14 along with payment. (Payments/paperwork will not be accepted in advance). *Chaperone forms will also be distributed Tuesday but may be collected immediately. (See chaperone info below).


Chaperones

  • Space is limited and will be selected on a “first come, first-served” basis, chaperones must be an LCMS parent/guardian and must ride the bus. Chaperones must have clearances. Direct chaperone questions and your interest to greeru@centennialsd.org.

  • Volunteer Disclosure Form- Volunteers must have a Volunteer Disclosure Form on file with the HR Department.
  • Act 114 FBI Federal Criminal History Report- (Online registration through IdentoGo) (The Service Code for Pennsylvania DHS Volunteer is:1KG6ZJ.)

    • This is a two-step process: (1) Register and pay online, and schedule your fingerprinting appointment. Print the registration receipt with the PAE number. The PAE number must be provided to Human Resources; (2) Visit a fingerprinting site to have your fingerprints submitted electronically.

  • Act 151 Child Abuse History Clearance- Free for Volunteers (Online registration)

  • Act 34 State Police Criminal History Report- Free for Volunteers (Online registration)




**If you have a financial hardship, please reach out to your child's counselor.

The students got to watch and listen to the orchestra rehearse for a concert they would perform later that afternoon. Students had front row seats to see how the world class musicians prepare, including guest conductor Fabio Luisi, and guest violin soloist, Leonidas Kavakos.

CSO - Women in STEM Career Day at William Tennent High School

On Saturday, 2/22/2025, the Centennial School District Chief Science Officers (CSO’s), Chloe, Niki, Izzy, and Zoey, and Chief Science Advisor, Mrs. Eckhardt, put this year's CSO plan in action. The CSO’s hosted a Women in STEM Career Day event at William Tennent High School where approximately 30 high school students attended to learn more about potential STEM careers. During this event, women working in various STEM careers volunteered to share their experiences with the students; one of the speakers was an alumni from William Tennent High School. Students listened to each speaker as they shared what they do within their career and what experiences they went through to get where they are today. Students were provided with the chance to ask each speaker questions and learn from each of them. We are grateful for each of the volunteers that participated and inspired our CSD students. Volunteers included: Dr. Huang - Head of Immunoproteomics, Dr. Larsen - Senior Lead Medical Writer, Ms. Singh - Electrical Engineer, Ms. Connell - Graduate Research Fellow, Ms. Beare - Senior Research Assc., and Ms. Salisbury - Director at Temple Arboretum.

Below are some photos from this great learning experience!

Grand Champions

The 8th grade FCS and STEM students competed in the 2025 Cupcake competition. Students worked in teams to build displays, bake and decorate cupcakes from scratch. It was a close race, but the "cookie monster" themed cupcake group was the grand champion! They made delicious Cookie Monster cupcakes that were chocolate cake with marshmallow fluff/chocolate chip cookie filling with buttercream frosting and a fantastic display of cookie monster as a chef. Each student received the "golden cupcake" trophy, which was printed in STEM with the 3D printer and a $10 gift card to Starbucks.

200 Club Winners 200 Club Winners

After a very long hiatus, the 200 Club board finally has hit again with a row of 10 completed! The lucky winners this time include Azam N., Dominic J., Henry C., E Mani B., Ramses S., Justin P., Arya C., Earl M., George L., and Karla S. Congratulations to all of the lucky winners, and remember to Live Safely, Own Responsibility, and Give Respect!

Golden G.O.O.S.E. Golden G.O.O.S.E.

One of the things that we do as a part of our PBIS team/200 Club, is recognize teachers for their hard work and dedication to the students, but with a slight twist: We have the students nominate their teachers for recognition!

Students nominate their teacher for the Golden G.O.O.S.E. (Get Out of School Early) Award. The lucky teacher that is chosen receives a certificate where they can leave school a few minutes early on a day of their choice. This month, 7th grader Stella M. nominated her ELA teacher Mr. Federinko, and wrote a very nice narrative about all of the great things that Mr. Federinko does for his students. Stella read her nomination on the Friday LCMS News broadcast, and then presented him with the certificate afterwards. Congratulations to Mr. Federinko, and thank you to Stella for your nomination!

7th Grade Gym Night 7th Grade Gym Night

Reading is Fundamental Reading is Fundamental

Put down the phone....pick up a book!

We ask that you please encourage your child to read at home! Not only is reading a great hobby, it helps children to become better learners and helps them focus. It is the single, greatest way your child can help him or herself. Plus, more and more, reading is becoming an expectation for our English classes.
