We have been notified that there will be an honor walk for Dwayne tomorrow as they take him to Kansas City where he will donate his organs. An honor walk is held as the organ donor leaves the hospital on their way to Kansas City to make the donation. After extensive testing today, it has been determined that Dwayne’s brain activity has stopped. The family has informed us that he wanted to be an organ donor. We will supply transportation for high school students who wish to attend the honor walk that currently is scheduled at Wesley medical center tomorrow at 2:00 pm. However, we will not know for sure if that schedule will change until tomorrow morning. If it does change, we will let students and parents know when it will be rescheduled. If your student would like to attend, please send a note giving permission. The JH basketball games, and music concert will go on as scheduled tomorrow night.
BOE Agenda December 19, 2023
I want to congratulate the Centre PTO for their tailgate at last night's basketball game against Solomon. They sponsored the tailgate to raise funds for the Brasch and Moenning families whose children were involved in the tragic car accident last week. They were able to raise 2654 dollars that will be split between the two families. The Solomon girl's basketball coach brought his entire team through to get Frito Pies after their game to help out. Thank you again to our amazing PTO!
This is a reminder the Centre Christmas Concert will be this Thursday, December 14th at 7:00 PM. The Centre Junior High basketball teams will play host to Gossell with the games beginning at 4:00 the same night. Admission to the games will be by donation with all proceeds going to the Brasch and Moenning families. Come early for the games and stay late for the concert. Let's pack the house!!!

Centre USD #397 is collecting donations to help with the funeral expenses and medical expenses of two students who were involved in a tragic vehicle accident Monday evening, December 4. We appreciate your generous support at this difficult time. Donations can be made at Tampa State Bank, Tampa, Cottonwood Valley Bank, Lincolnville, Barnes Grocery, Herington, or the District Office. There will also be collection jars at the home basketball games next week. A correction on the initial post of sending checks to the Central Office. We sere informed we could not accept checks made out to the school district for this cause. We will let you know how you can get funds to us at the school. Thank you for your generosity.
It is with a heavy heart I inform you that Michelle Brasch, a senior at Centre High School was killed in a traffic accident outside of Marion last night. We have had counselors from surrounding schools here this morning to help our team of Social Workers, teachers, and staff help our students and each other through this tragic time. Dwayne Moenning was injured in the accident and is in a Wichita Hospital in critical but stable condition. Our thoughts and prayers go out to both families during this very difficult time.

Because of the dangerous condition of many or our roads in the district, I have decided to cancel school at Centre for tomorrow, Monday, November 27th. Several of the roads on our bus routes have not been cleared yet, making them dangerous to drive on. School will resume at the usual time Tuesday morning. Thank you and have a good evening.
