Dear Parents,<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Welcome to Center Elementary School. We are looking forward to an educational, safe, and fun year. We hope everyone is well-rested\u00a0from our summer break!<\/p>\n

We are so proud of our staff and students for having a successful year. We love our beautiful new building and are continuing to work to create our new identity as a Center Elementary Community!<\/p>\n

Our hours are 8:10-2:30. Doors open at 7:55. We match the Ryan School\u2019s hours. A few reminders when entering the building: You will be directed to an iPad to log in and receive a visitor badge. Safety is a priority, so please refrain from holding doors open while entering the building, even if you know the person behind you. You will also notice various sets of secured doors in the building just outside the office area. This will limit access to the classroom areas of the building.<\/p>\n

For students being dismissed as a pick-up, parents are asked to register on Pickup Patrol. All adults involved in picking up your children need to be on the student\u2019s pick-up list from Pickup Patrol. If your child needs to be dismissed in a manner other than their norm, a written note\/Change in Pickup Patrol needs to be provided. We can not take a verbal statement from a child regarding their dismissal. We want everyone to arrive and leave safely. We will be reviewing pick-up and drop-off processes throughout the year.<\/p>\n

The CES PAC meetings have started, and we are excited about working with our families to create a rich learning environment at Center Elementary School. The CES PAC is always looking for assistance with the various enrichment programs that they bring to our school. Please reach out to the PAC to become involved.<\/p>\n

Once again, WELCOME TO CENTER ELEMENTARY!<\/p>\n

GO CES DRAGONS!!!<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>\n
