We know the first days of school are exciting—and sometimes a little nerve-racking! Parents and guardians are welcome to walk their child to class during the first two days of school at Central Elementary.
Beginning on the third day, we ask that parents say their goodbyes at the entrance and allow students to walk to their classroom on their own. Don’t worry—our Central Elementary staff will be available to greet students, help them find their classroom, and provide a little extra comfort and encouragement when needed. 💚
Thank you for helping our students build confidence and independence as they get comfortable with their school routine. We can’t wait to see our Central Elementary students tomorrow! 🦅💚
