Tonight’s DAC meeting has been cancelled. We will share the new date as soon as it is confirmed.
✨ Join Us for a Night Under the Stars! ✨
Centennial School is hosting a community stargazing night — and this year is extra special!
We were one of only two schools selected in the San Luis Valley to receive a donated telescope, and we can’t wait to share it with our community as we explore the night sky together. 🌌🔭
Even better — our event lines up with the Geminids Meteor Shower, one of the most dazzling celestial shows of the year. Expect bright, colorful meteors and an unforgettable experience!
📅 December 8th
⏰ 5:30–7:00 pm
📍 Centennial School
Bundle up, bring your curiosity, and join us for telescope viewing, shooting stars, and a magical evening under the sky with our Ram Fam.
⭐️ Clear skies, community, and cosmic wonder — see you there! ⭐️

Over the past few weeks our middle schoolers have been doing some pretty cool learning! From engineering boats out of cardboard and duct tape, to creating Art with Purpose performance assessment pieces, to building cardboard mini winter scenes, to learning brand-new instruments — our kids have been busy showing what hands-on learning is all about.
