If you have certain teachers that you would like to meet with, please email them directly to set up a time. The teachers will then set up a Zoom link to meet with you or place a phone call at that time.

Centre's Fall Homecoming Crowning has been pushed up to this Friday, September 25th. The ceremony will take place at 6:30 PM, right before the Centre vs. Rural Vista football game. Because of the uncertain times that we are living in, we decided to push the ceremony up so that we can make sure that the students have the chance to enjoy this experience. We will plan to still have our fun homecoming activities on the week of October 5th - 9th. We have no limit on those who attend the Homecoming Ceremony and the football game, however; we do ask that you wear your masks and maintain social distancing in order to stay as safe as possible.
