Centerville Families,

Thank you for helping your kids through another great week of school. You may have noticed they were a little extra tired or needed a little extra love and attention. The newness of a different schedule, teacher, friends, and routines is exciting but also mentally challenging for kids. Our teachers understand this and are good about taking time to build relationships and routines to help them feel secure and set them up for success.

This week our school focused on bus and fire safety. Students received bus safety booklets and learned how to stay safe when riding and evacuating the bus in the case of an emergency. We also had our first fire drill on Wednesday, which went extremely well. Students followed teachers’ directions and exited quickly in a responsible manner.

Thank you for all your support and have a great weekend!

Go Cougars!

Mike Macken

Minnesota law requires children enrolled in childcare, early childhood education, or school to be immunized against certain diseases, unless the child is medically or non-medically exempt. If proper documentation is not provided, students will be unable to attend school after November 1, 2023. What you need to do:

• Contact your health care provider and review your student’s immunization status to make sure they are up to date.
• If you missed a required vaccination, make an appointment with a healthcare provider or local clinic as soon as possible.
• Follow up with your students’ school if they have reached out to you regarding your student’s immunization status.
• Turn in medical (must be signed by health care provider) and non-medical (must be notarized) exemption forms to your child’s school.

Visit the MDH website for vaccine schedules, exemption forms and more information including where to get free/low cost immunizations today. Please reach out to your students’ school for any questions. Please note, K-12 immunization status is available on Campus Parent Portal.
