Welcome back everyone!
Well we have had an exciting start to our 2020 school year. The snow was beautiful and definitely added excitement to the school. I hope everyone was able to have a restful and enjoyable Winter Break and now that we are back I think we all are so excited to see all of our amazing students. January brings some fun events with the Centreville Pyramid concert, Winter Strings concert, Firehouse Spirit Night and some long weekends for the students with no school January 20 and January 27/28.
Please have a great weekend and enjoy the burst of warm weather.
