Cyclone Central Newsletter

February 23, 2024

Team Center Families,

It has been a short but memorable week at Center Elementary! This week, we enjoyed reading Duck for President, and So You Want to be President as we celebrated week three of Cyclones Read Month. Next week, we will have fun recognizing Leap Day together and reading Leopold's Long Awaited Leap Year Birthday. This week, we also celebrated our 100th day of school in Kindergarten and First Grade, and our 3D printers are hard at work making our 4th graders' bubble wand designs come to life.

Thanks to the support of CSA, our school is launching our first ever Glow Run. This event will take place during the school day on March 14th. Students will be mezmerized as they enjoy movement together on a glow-in-the-dark course created in our gym, and families can support the cause by helping us to collect donations for our school. Funds raised will be put towards playground improvements and Staff Appreciation Week. Check out the information below for how to sign up and begin helping us to collect donations.

Wishing your family a wonderful weekend,

Kate Rateno

Principal, Center Elementary School

EDULOG BUS APP

We are excited to announce that you now have access to a revolutionary smartphone app that helps to improve communication, school bus safety, and efficiency. The Edulog Parent Portal app provides you with planned time and location information for your child's bus ride to and from school. On a daily basis, the app will show you the GPS location of the bus and send you a push notification when it is nearing your bus stop.

-- all communication regarding buses will come through this app and not IC --

Attached are directions on how to get the Edulog Parent Portal app up and running! You can also watch this video for more information: Edulog Parent Portal App Setup Video. More information on the Transportation Department Web Page.
