Ice Cream & Art!

     The Lexington PTO will have their annual Ice Cream Social for Central from 6-8 on Monday, May 13^th. Central student artists will have a big exhibit of their art creations at the Ice Cream Social.  They have worked hard all year and this is their time to show off with things hanging in the cafeteria and in many hallways.  The art room will also be open with displays of their clay creations and sculpture. Thank you to the PTO for providing the opportunity for them to shine.

Ohio Achievement Assessment

     The Third and Fourth Grade Ohio Achievement Assessment results should be in at the end of June, we will mail them to you as soon as we get them. Thank you for all of the hard work from the parents to the teachers who take such great care of our children and do whatever it takes to make sure that our kids are successful.

Fun Day

     A reminder that Fun Day will be on Thursday, June 2. Please make sure that your child has on very comfortable clothing, they need to have on tennis shoes and sunscreen because they will be doing a lot of running and moving. It is also a good idea to bring a water bottle for the day. Also if you are signed up to work that day please show up!! When you get here report to the gym so you can find your name on the poster to see what event you are working.

Progress Reports

     A reminder that all of your school fees, lunch charges and library fines must be paid before your child’s progress report will be sent home. There will be no progress reports passed out before May 30th. If for some reason your student will not be at school that day you may come in and pick them up at a later date.

Lost and Found

     Please come and look through the lost and found for items that may belong to you. The items in the lost and found will be donated to a charitable organization if they are not claimed by Friday, May 31^st.

Medicines

     Please make sure that you pick up any medicine that we have in the office for your children. If it is not picked up by Friday, May 31st it will be disposed. We are not permitted to send it home on the bus.

Class Lists

Class lists will be posted on the front doors of the school on Friday, August 16^th after 4:00 pm.

Bus Stops for the 13-14 School Year

     Just a reminder that at the end of this school year all bus stops default back to the student’s home address. If you would like for your child to be dropped off or picked up next school year other than their home address the bus garage will need a new permission slip, from the parent or guardian, to change the students stops to somewhere other than their residence. Avoid the August 28^th rush and you can start sending your letters to the bus garage on July 1^st. You can fax them to 419-884-1821, or send requests to 103 Clever Lane, Lexington, Ohio 44904 Attention: Transportation.

No more charges

   Friday, May 17^th will be the last day the students will be able to charge their lunches. Please make sure to pay any charges that you may have incurred.

Volunteer Appreciation

     Central Elementary wishes to thank all of the people who have volunteered this year. You are greatly appreciated. We would like to express our gratitude by inviting you for breakfast.
