Good Evening Vulcans! We are happy to announce that beginning tomorrow, Wednesday, August 24, we will no longer have a double bus run on the Cat Bus. We will continue to have a double run on the Horse Bus in the afternoons only as we train additional drivers. Thank you for being patient while we wait for our new driver to complete their training.

Fifth grade parents:
Please turn in Camp Hartley paperwork to the office as soon as possible. Money can be turned in by September 5th.
Also, students will be bringing home an envelope and permission slip to participate in a Walk-a-thon as a fundraiser. 100% of money that your friends and family contribute will go towards the cost of camp for your child.

Elementary Cross Country is cancelled for today. It will begin next Monday.

We are excited to offer a balanced calendar to families this year. Want your kids to be a part of a fun, caring district? Join us! There is still time to enroll! School of Choice applications are being accepted until August 19, contact Stacy in the Superintendent's Office with questions 989-823-8535 option 1. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K4MUZkFUS5A

School starts Monday, August 15! Parents please make sure your kids are getting to bed earlier this weekend so they arrive to school rested and ready to learn. See you soon Vulcans!

Please see the attached letter from Nurse Greer regarding vaccinations for the upcoming school year.


Dear Central Families,
We understand that the first day of school can cause some anxiety, so for the first day only, parents will be allowed to walk their child to class. After the first day, students will need to enter the building by themselves. This helps us to ensure the building is secure and safe. We have a lot of staff present in the hallways to ensure your child will get to the correct class. Thank you for your understanding.
Mrs. Riccobono,
Principal

Good Evening Vulcan Families! Please join us for the District Open House tomorrow from 5:30-7:30. Go to your child's building where you can meet your child's teachers, get schedules, and so much more. We can not wait to see you!


Central Families,
I have heard that people have been accessing Skyward to find out who their child's teacher is for next year. Please know that the system has not been updated to reflect changes that have occurred over the summer and the information may not be accurate. The secretaries return August 2nd and will work on updating the information as quickly as possible. I will make another post when I know they have updated everything. Thank you for your understanding and patience.
Mrs. Riccobono
Principal
