7th and 8th grade Science students in Mrs. Kimball’s class kicked off the year with a Gummy Bear Lab!   Students worked through the scientific method by making observations, developing a hypothesis, collecting and analyzing data, and using their results to draw conclusions! The science did not stop there! Students then completed a written summary of their investigation, using evidence from their own data to explain what happened to their Gummy Bears. This gave us a great opportunity to connect science with writing and reinforce the importance of clearly communicating scientific thinking.

Help our school with the Fall PTO Fundraiser!

Attendance is a core employability skill. The habits students build in school today can carry with them into the workplace tomorrow. Being present, being on time, and being dependable are qualities employers value—and they start long before the first job interview. At Centerburg, we’re encouraging students and families to make attendance a priority. Because first impressions start before the interview. Attendance Today. Opportunity Tomorrow. https://youtu.be/RKoCZQchbI4?si=aI6NI_IP--anaoTD Together, we're helping students build habits that will serve them for years to come.

September is Knox County Attendance Month! This September, Centerburg is joining every Knox County school district in a countywide effort to help students understand why attendance matters. Throughout the month, our students will hear directly from local employers about one of the most important qualities they look for in future employees: ✔ Showing up. Good attendance isn't just about being present in class—it helps students build habits like responsibility, teamwork, commitment, and dependability that lead to success in school, careers, and life. Each week we'll share a new employer video along with resources for students and families. We invite you to follow along, watch the videos, and continue the conversation at home. Together, we're helping students build habits that last a lifetime. Attendance Today. Opportunity Tomorrow.
