Central Public Schools - Education Is Central

During summer school, second-grade students investigated the life cycle of the monarch butterfly from larva to adult monarch. The hands-on activities created a group of young citizen scientists who are now eager to continue their stewardship to protect and increase the dwindling population of this amazing insect!

Second Graders in Ms. Heinze and Mrs. Dvorak's summer school class explore the push and pull forces that are at work in the dog obstacle courses that they built with legos.

*ATTENTION RAIDER NATION** PLEASE DO NOT use, drop off or pick up kids at the back lot or entrances of the Middle/High School. The front DISTRICT OFFICE DOORS will be open from 6 AM - 1 PM for speed and agility and AM basketball practice. Thank you
