Central Elementary School

3rd graders enjoyed reading and learning about the Titanic recently. They even got to experience what it would be like to be a passenger in the different classes of the ship. Here students are enjoying their first class tea time meal!

5th grade enjoyed their field trip to JA Biztown! Students visited this simulated town which gave them the opportunity to operate banks, manage restaurants, write checks, vote for mayor, and much more!

“Today a reader, tomorrow a leader” We LOVE our library time at Central! Mrs. Price is always helping our kiddos find *just* the right book and it is so fun to watch them dig in to their reading!

1st graders read “Balloons Over Broadway” to learn about how the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade first originated. Then, students created their very own balloon float and enjoyed walking the halls of Central for their very own Thanksgiving Parade!

Central families had a great time at our Special Person Night before Thanksgiving! It wouldn't have been possible without our amazingly supportive and creative PTO!

4th year foreign language students from PHS visited Central students before Thanksgiving to teach them a little about their language they’ve been learning! Our Central students loved spending time with the “big kids” 🙂

Have a wonderful break! We look forward to seeing the students next Monday, November 28th.

Do you know about the Snake-Haired Monster? I bet our 5th graders could tell you about the myth of Perseus and Medusa!

Central’s K-Kids Ambassadors Club is made up of 4th and 5th grade students who give back to our school and town community through acts of service/service projects. They just finished up a food drive for the month of November! In December, they will be caroling for seniors at a local senior living facility.

2nd graders learned about hands-only CPR, car/seat-belt safety, how to stop the bleed, and chatted with first responders from the PFT at their November Odyssey at The Imagination Lab!

1st grade fire safety and prevention with the Plainfield Fire Territory!

Thanks to our special guest speaker (Judge Smith, Ms. Smith’s dad!), our 4th grade students recently got to participate in a mock trial! Students learned so much about the process and got some great hands-on learning experience.

Hands-on learning through pumpkin exploration in Mrs. Hess’ 1st grade class!

3rd graders recently enjoyed their November Odyssey to the Imagination Lab AND a visit from our community partners, Chemistry is a Blast!

4th grade had so much fun at their recent Glow Day celebration!

1st grade fun!

2nd graders in Ms. Carmichael’s class read “How to Catch a Monster” and then created traps for their Blue Bot monster.

5th grade enjoyed their November Odyssey to The Imagination Lab last week where they chatted with special guest Officer Nolan.

Students recently celebrated all of their hard work during the first quarter with their class Central Celebrations!
