The PTA Delivers Another Memorable Event
The PTA has outdone itself once again! During the amazing Annual PTA Color Fun Run, a thrilling raffle was held with several exciting prizes. One of the students' favorites is the chance to throw a pie in the face of a chosen participant. This year, our principal, Courtney Kolb, stepped up to the challenge, taking on not just one, but multiple cream pies in succession!
As shown in the picture, the students absolutely loved seeing the whipped cream splattered across her face. “Take that!”
Centennial Elementary was excited to meet future Rams at Kindergarten Connection!

My Passion for Foursquare
I have always had a deep affection for the game of foursquare. In my view, schools should definitely host foursquare tournaments. This thrilling game requires quickness of both hands and feet, making it an exciting challenge. With numerous rules and variations, it can sometimes feel a bit unfair, especially when you get out—how frustrating! At Centennial Elementary, the intensity of the games is palpable. Students have the chance to hone their debating skills while learning the art of compromise.
During recess, children of all ages eagerly join in on this competitive game. The variations seem endless, and while there are written rules, checking out YouTube can be a great starting point. Throughout the day, you might find about ten players waiting for their chance to ascend to the coveted number one spot, “The Server”—the top dog. Staff members passing by often get drawn into the action, only to discover that they can be eliminated within seconds, even after waiting for minutes to join.
Regardless of which version you encounter, it's crucial to know if there are spinners, atom bombs, or carries in play. Foursquare is a fun game that restarts quickly; you might win some, and you might lose others. Being a good sport is key!
