Superintendent's Welcome
Last class day for this group of driver education students learning about the dangers of distracted driving! First day with masks!! 😷
We just finished our fifth week of summer athletic development (fourth week in the weight room). This was a heavy week with many new PRs set and several names being moved up the record board. Very proud of the progress we have made so far this summer!!
The Central Heights School District would like to wish Mr. Brian Spencer a happy retirement! Mr. Spencer has had a major impact on education in the State of Kansas in his 33 years of education. The five years leading the Vikings have been no different as he has helped us overcome many obstacles during his tenure. Mr. Spencer mentioned the most memorable moment at Central Heights was the water test over Christmas Break of 2017.
Mr. Spencer will be forever remembered for his infectious laughter and “good mornin’” during any part of the day.
Thank you, Mr. Spencer, for all that you do, for showing us how to enjoy each day and always pushing us to do what is best for kids! Enjoy your retirement!
