Families who are direct certified will notice the fee change in their Teacherease account tomorrow. Secretaries are making adjustments now. We apologize the new system did not transfer this information.

Today families owing money for registration fees, lunch balances, and other fees will be receiving an email. Next year, secretaries will be sending these on a weekly basis to remind you payments are due. Messages were sent in October and December to get fees paid. Fee waivers were included in the online registration process at the beginning of the year and are no longer eligible with two weeks of school remaining. If you need to make payment arrangements to pay before July 1, please contact Patty Cavins at pcavins@central104.org or 618-632-6336 ext 302. Payments not received in full by July 1 will prohibit students from registering for next school year. If you have any questions regarding payments already made or any other system questions, please contact Jess Daniels at jdaniels@central104.org. Thank you for your patience and understanding as we learn lessons from our transition to a new student information system.

We had a great night at the board meeting tonight celebrating our 2 Superintendent Shout Outs Braylon Veath and Landon Garner and our IASB Established Board President Sarah Svoboda.




Big thank you to Poettker Construction for giving the Girls Emerging as Women Leaders (GEWL) program a $500 grant!


Mrs. Yarber and Mrs. Shelton had so much fun visiting Kindergarten Power Hour! The students wowed us with their "Direct and Draw" projects. Their creative sentences were packed with details that made guessing their drawings a blast — such talented young artists and storytellers!


Have a wonderful weekend!
