It's been a crazy week at Centre and I missed the opportunity to thank our school nurse Gayle Whiteley for the work she does in helping our students stay healthy and keeping our student health records up to date. Gayle does all of this while driving a bus route for us as well. Thank you Gayle for all you do!

We had the pleasure of attending a very long FFA Banquest at Centre this evening. The reason it was so long is because our Centre FFA is so stinking good at what they do! The list of accomplishments these students achieved this year is nothing short of amazing. Congratulations to all of our members and our sponsors Jon Meier and Emma Jacobson on leading our students on such an outstanding year of accomplishments. Cougar proud of you all!!

Good Morning again. We've had several inquiries about this afternoon's predicted weather event and if Centre is considering letting out early to get our students and staff home safely before the storm moves in. We are monitoring the weather very closely and I will let you know if there are any changes to our release time. I was just in contact with the National Weather Service in Wichita and their best estimate is the storm shouldn't reach us until after 5:00 PM. There will be NO practices or activities after school. I will send an update in the event the timeline changes. Thank you

We want to congratulate one of our Centre FFA members and their many successes this spring within his SAE. Santiago Knepp has his own cattle that he has been raising and has recently achieved some major honors and awards from taking his heifer to many different shows this spring. His heifer he has been raising recently was named the Supreme breeding heifer at the 3 different shows, was named Reserved Supreme at another show, and was named 3rd overall at another show. Santiago works with his brother in his SAE and puts many hours into his project! We want to congratulate him on his many accomplishments!
