Centennial's Food & Nutrition Department is again partnering with GIANT Food Stores to help support our students facing food insecurity. We encourage the greater community to participate in this effort.

Through March 31st, everyone who shops at GIANT will be invited to "round-up" at the register and donate the round-up amount of their bill to support Feeding School Kids. Customers can also give by converting their CHOICE Rewards Points to donations in the GIANT app or purchasing a reusable bag.

We ask our school community to help spread the word about the Feeding School Kids 2024 Campaign to ensure its success. Our goal is to support the children in our district who need the most help accessing nutritious meals and snacks. From backpacks with weekend food to clearing lunch debt to building a community pantry in our schools, the funds will be provided directly to our district's food organization for use, at our discretion, to address food insecurity in our school community.

Please join us in supporting and advocating for this initiative to help ensure no child in our district experiences hunger at school or home.

Log College's STEM classroom recently seized the opportunity to employ its two state-of-the-art Bambu Lab P1S 3D printers. These printers boast the ability to swiftly produce designs, offering up to four different colors in the process. The 7th and 8th-grade STEM classes are set to leverage these printers for crafting steamboat designs, game board pieces, and cupcake war displays in collaboration with Family Consumer Science class, and various other projects throughout the year.

Prepare the popcorn! Seventh-grade students from Log College, participating in the digital media course titled "Lights! Camera! Action!," have crafted short films featuring classic "Knock! Knock!" jokes. Overcoming the challenge, these novice filmmakers skillfully positioned cameras and edited clips to create scenes where characters interacted as if face-to-face through a barrier. Some producers even incorporated green screen effects to elevate the storytelling. A big congratulations to our filmmakers as we applaud their achievements.
