Center Families,
What an incredible week we’ve had!
We want to take a moment to thank our entire school community for coming together to support the District Elementary Food Drive. Because of your generosity and kindness, we have collected over 10,000 items across Mayfield - an amazing achievement! These donations will go directly to the Our Savior Lutheran Church Food Pantry and the Mayfield Pay It Forward Room, helping families in need right here in our community. Food Pantry Details
The Our Savior Lutheran Church Food Pantry is open on the third Saturday of each month from 11 AM to 1:30 PM. If your family would like access to the Pay It Forward Room, or if we can help connect you with any other resources, please reach out to Mr. DiMarino, our School Counselor.
We are still waiting on the final totals for our individual schools and grade levels, but no matter the numbers, this was a true team effort. Your willingness to give and support others is what makes our Mayfield community so special!
As a token of our gratitude, we are celebrating with a Team Spirit Day on Monday! We invite all students and staff to wear their coziest pajamas, comfy clothes, or favorite hats as a fun way to recognize everyone's hard work and generosity.
Thank you for making this week so meaningful. Your kindness and teamwork continue to make a difference!
With appreciation,
Kate Rateno and Darcy Klimkowski
Principals, Center Elementary School
