🍎2nd Grade had tons of apple fun today with apple volcanos and q-tip painting! We can't wait to see what else this week has in store for us! 🍏









A few of Mrs. Skaggs' younger students had some hands-on fun with a Gummy Worm Investigation! They combined science and math as they observed gummy worms and explored their color, texture, size, and other characteristics.
The students practiced measurement by using blocks to determine the length of their worms, made observations using their senses, and even tested what happened when the gummy worms were placed in water.
Learning is always a little more fun when you can see it, touch it, measure it—and maybe even eat it when you’re finished!






A huge shout-out to Ms. Monica Whitaker for volunteering her time to read with our students at Central Elementary!
Our heartfelt thanks to Ms. Whitaker and all of our community partners who generously give their time and support to make a difference for our students.
Once a Golden Eagle, always a Golden Eagle!

ALL-IN FOR STUDENTS AT CENTRAL ELEMENTARY
What a wonderful day of learning at Central Elementary!
Principal Conley, teachers, and students were truly ALL-IN during today’s Learning Walks. It was exciting to see teachers bringing i-Ready Classroom Math to life through strong instruction, student engagement, and a shared commitment to doing what is best for every learner.
What stood out most was the dedication of the Central team. From Principal Conley’s instructional leadership to teachers’ willingness to reflect, collaborate, and go above and beyond, there was a clear focus throughout the school: our students are worth the work.
A special thank you to Alisha Hall with Curriculum Associates for partnering with us and helping facilitate today’s Learning Walks. We appreciate her support as our teachers continue to strengthen implementation and grow together.
Great things are happening at Central Elementary and across our district because of educators who are willing to go above and beyond and be ALL-IN for students!
