Exciting things are happening in Mrs. Hamilton's class this week! Our talented sophomores are putting their creative minds to work, meticulously planning and designing water towers.

Today the HS Student Lighthouse Team kicked off their year by creating their superhero "alter ego" trading cards to introduce each other, before talking about this year's goals to be a TRUE lighthouse to their classmates. This group IS full of real superheroes that will move mountains this year!


Today the 9th graders received their first counseling lesson on the topic of communication. Students were challenged to recreate a photo receiving only verbal instruction, then discussed parallels and pitfalls to communication in our everyday lives. What a great group to work with!







Good evening, Please see the attached chart which is a wet bulb reading chart. We have been issued a device from KSHSAA that allows us to take the readings right here on campus! We check everyday at 3:00 right before practice starts.
We know how important our student athletes safety and health are! We will be practicing in the mornings for the next several days for outdoor practices.
Volleyball will be on their normal schedule.
So please be on the lookout for information from your coaches. If you have any questions email jbrown@usd288.org Keep drinking those liquids!!!
And always GO VIKINGS!!

More pictures of the 5th grade trip to Starbase.






5th grade attended Starbase today. Students were able to learn about the engineering design process, building different types of matter with models, and force/mass using straw rockets.






Middle School Volleyball shirt orders are due Monday! You can drop them off at the middle school office.

Fourth grade got together for their Friday STEM activity. They did "don’t chip the chip". They had to create a package to ship their chip in without it breaking! Some were very successful!











The Central Heights, High School Band, is hitting all the right notes this week!
Our talented musicians are hard at work perfecting their halftime routines, and we can't wait to see the magic unfold at our home football opener on September 6th!

We had 135 student athletes participating in opening day of fall sports today in both middle and high school combined! What a great way to start the fall sports season! We are excited and know how athletics can have such a positive impact on our youth's future!


👀 We've watched from afar. We've seen all of the fun you've had on the elementary yard. We've heard from our parents and families who have also watched from afar, and we are proud to announce that the Middle School is now going to LUNCH ON THE LAWN, too! 🥳️
