As we close the final chapter of the 2024–2025 school year, I want to pause and say—what an incredible journey it’s been. This year, our Aviators truly went Above & Beyond. In classrooms, on the playground, during performances, competitions, and community events—our students soared to new heights. We set ambitious goals, and with determination and heart, we achieved new altitudes in learning, collaboration, and school spirit.
From the very first day, I watched our staff pour their passion into making every lesson meaningful. I saw students stretch their thinking, grow in confidence, and support one another like a true flight crew. I witnessed families partnering with us, cheering from the sidelines and helping our school shine brighter every day.
Together, we:
-
Celebrated major academic growth
-
Introduced innovative learning experiences and creative projects
-
Honored effort and perseverance through events like the Aviator Effort Extravaganza
-
Strengthened our culture of kindness, respect, and responsibility
It has been nothing short of inspiring. As your principal, I’m deeply proud of what we’ve accomplished and deeply grateful for each member of our Centerville Elementary community. We truly are a school family—lifting each other higher, grounded in care and driven by excellence.
Thank you for an amazing year. I hope your summer is filled with rest, joy, and adventure. We’ll be ready to welcome you back next year as we continue our mission to go Above & Beyond—together.
