Our phone system is currently down, not allowing calls to come through from outside the school. We have reached out to have our service restored as quickly as possible and will post when the problem has been resolved.

Centre will be hosting the 7-10 seeds of the WSL tournament on Saturday. Attached is the schedule for tomorrow's games.

Today during Mrs. Carlson’s Financial Literacy class, Mrs. McMichael came in to kick off the 3-day Kansas Apply Free Days with the seniors!

During these three days, any Kansas resident, regardless of age or income can apply for free at any of the 7 public universities, 19 community colleges, 6 Technical colleges, and the 21 private member institutions.

We are so proud of our seniors for taking advantage of this opportunity!
