Central Elementary

Greetings Central Families,

Happy Thanksgiving! It's hard to believe the holiday season is upon us and December is but a week away. November has been a month rich in learning, community building, exploring new innovations, teaming, and getting better together through teamwork. We are so proud of our kids!

Please use this newsletter as an opportunity to explore and consider upcoming events that will certainly capture the joys of the season, including our Snow Biz Musical, Santa's Shop, Run the Spruce, and the annual Light Show. We look forward to coming together as one much much more in the days and weeks to come :)

Wishing you a very happy thanksgiving and a joyful holiday season!

As always, should you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to reach out, 231-744-1693.

Cordially,

Cody
