Greetings Centennial Families!

Welcome to the 20-21 school year. This has been and continues to be a challenging time for all of us.  Over the last few months we have worked diligently to study the guidance from national, state, and local officials as well as seeking input from parents, staff and stakeholders. We have used this information to create our district Health/Safety Plan. Once this was approved at the district level, we moved forward with creating a plan that was specific to our site. 

 

We have done our best to use a common-sense approach for the development of our Centennial site plan for our traditional school model. Keeping our students and staff as safe as possible is our top priority. Our plan addresses all areas of the building and our daily activities from arrival to dismissal. Even if you do not agree with every point in our plan, we hope you know that we care deeply about our students. Every decision was carefully thought out with input from our building leaders. Decisions were made based on space, building layout, class size, and what was safest for students and staff in specific situations. Details in our plan may change over time depending on what is changing around us, but we will always make the best decisions we can. Our Centennial Site Plan can be found on our school website and we are attaching it to this email as well. Everyone has their own opinions and concerns about returning to traditional school. If this model is not comfortable for you, please check out our district virtual options found at http://www.mustangps.org/MORSEY.aspx . The district has worked hard to come up with an option that works for everyone. 

 

Even though this is not a typical year, and will be different than any year we have ever had, we will provide the same exceptional education for our students. We will build relationships, have fun, be creative, and make memories to last a lifetime. We will take this experience and not only make the best of it but learn and grow through it. We are going to make the most of every moment we have together! Thank you for your patience and understanding as we continue this journey hand in hand.  Our students and families are what make Centennial the outstanding school it is and we can't wait to open our doors to our students once again.
