Hello Centerview families!
Welcome to the 2024-2025 school year at Centerview Elementary! I hope each of you had an enjoyable summer and were able to get away, relax, and enjoy some of your favorite activities.
I am thrilled, once again, to have the opportunity to partner with our staff and all of you to support making connections, increasing engagement, and facilitating learning. While there is always a lot to do in preparation for the start of the school year, it is energizing knowing what an awesome responsibility we have to know each student by name strength, interest, and need.
We look forward to seeing our students back for the first day of school on Tuesday, September 3.
Here is some information to guide and support you as we approach the school year:

Bus riders
If your child rides the bus, bus information, including bus stop, pick up and drop off times is expected to be mailed to homes the week of August 19. Please plan for your student to ride the bus on the first day of school to help us work out all our routines and eliminate as much confusion as possible.
Parent Pick-up
If your child will be dropped off and picked up by a parent/guardian, a table will be available at Meet and Greet to register and get your pick-up number. The process will be familiar to our returning families, however vehicle pick-up line to conclude the day will take on a new format. A map, guidance and expectations will be provided at the parent pick-up table.
Connect as parents
As parents and guardians of the students of Centerview Elementary, I encourage you to become involved in our Parent Teacher Organization (PTO). Please plan to stop by the booth at our Meet and Greet event and learn more about the volunteer opportunities available to support our children throughout the school year.
I look forward to seeing you at school on Wednesday, August 28. If you have any questions or thoughts prior to the start of the school year, please do not hesitate to contact us. As a school, we look forward to partnering together to best support your child in feeling valued, inspired, and having a sense of belonging here at Centerview.
Enjoy the last few weeks of the summer!
See you soon,
Mike Callahan
Principal
