Centreville Students, Families, and Community,
On behalf of the entire Centreville community, we extend our heartfelt congratulations to the Class of 2025 and their families. We are incredibly proud of your accomplishments and look forward to the positive impact you will make on yourselves, our community, and the world.
As we wrap up the school year, final exams for underclassmen will take place on Monday and Tuesday. On Wednesday, there will be no exams or scheduled classes. Students who attend school that day will be supervised in the cafeteria and/or auditorium, where they can sign yearbooks and spend time with peers. Dismissal will be at 10:20 AM, and grab-and-go lunches will be available.
Our final PTSA meeting of the year will be held on Tuesday evening at 7:00PM. Strengthening our PTSA is a top priority, as the partnership between students, staff, and families is essential to the success of our students and our entire community. We hope to elect new PTSA leadership and encourage all families to get involved in shaping the future of our school.
This will be the final edition of the Wildcat Weekly for the 2024–2025 school year. Weekly newsletters will resume at the end of July. Be sure to mark your calendar for Wildcat Welcome, scheduled for Thursday, August 14 to better align with the release of schedules on StudentVUE and ParentVUE. More details will be shared as we approach the start of the new school year.
Wishing everyone in Wildcat Nation a restful, relaxing, and recharging summer!
Thank you and Go Wildcats!
Dr. Erik Healey, Principal
