At approximately 3:00 pm today, the Center School District went into a secure hold for about 10 minutes out of an abundance of caution due to reported concerns in the Monte Vista area. The secure has since been lifted, and all students and staff are safe. We are proud of our students, staff, and the Center Police Department for calmly and effectively following safety protocols to ensure the well-being of everyone on campus. Thank you, team, for a job well done!



Center Consolidated Schools invites parents, families, staff, and community members to join us for our upcoming District Accountability Meeting.
🗓 September 9, 2025- The 2nd Tuesday of every month
⏰ Time: 4:15 pm
📍 Location: Community Room, next to the library
The District Accountability Committee plays an important role in shaping the future of our schools. Together, we review district performance, share updates on initiatives, and gather feedback that helps guide decision-making for the success of all Center Vikings.
Your voice matters—this is a great opportunity to stay informed, ask questions, and partner with us to support our students and community.

👉 If your child wears glasses, please make sure they bring them to school that day.
❓ If you have any questions, please contact the School Nurse at 754-2865.

This app helps students, parents, and community members know what is happening on campus, right from their phones. We know that families are using smartphones as a primary means to communicate. That’s why we have an app that is custom-built for mobile. On the app, you can find documents, contact information for staff, and event information. You can download the app for free from the Apple App Store or Google Play.
Three Main Benefits of the Mobile App:
1) Stay up-to-date with school information.
Receive updates about events occurring on campus, documents, required forms, and even emergency notifications.
2) Know what’s going on at school.
Find real-time updates from the website’s live feed about stories happening inside the classroom.
3) Connect with teachers and administrators.
Learn about parent-teacher conferences, access staff contact information, and quickly find out about district news.
