Volume 3, Issue 1; July 8, 2024

Special Summer Edition!


Welcome to Centre Ridge's All-Star Team!

Home Run

Are you ready to hit a home run?

We are on deck for an awesome year—let's hit it out of the park!


Dear CRES Community,

We hope you had a wonderful Fourth of July! While you are enjoying your summer, we are busy planning for another fantastic school year!

This year, our theme is "Centre Ridge: School of Dreams." Building on the baseball adage "Field of Dreams," we are imagining what is possible if we dare to dream big! As a "School of Dreams," we are stepping up to the plate, preparing to turn those dreams into reality. Just like in baseball, where every player has a unique role and skill, we want each student to hone their talents and shine! Our goal is to provide the tools, support, and encouragement needed for every student to hit a home run in their educational journey!

Stay tuned for more information on how this theme will be included throughout our school year, beginning with our Open House scheduled for August 16th. Details will be forthcoming as we plan for your child to meet their teacher, visit their classroom, and participate in a schoolwide event that afternoon. We want to see every family at our Open House event where we can reflect on our hopes and dreams for the year!

We look forward to an inspiring and successful school year ahead! Batter up, Rams!

Warmly,

Dr. Hertzberg, Ms. Baugh, Ms. Sutton, Ms. Helmer, and Ms. Ford
