From the school

Centennial High School publishes a bi-monthly newsletter on the school's internet web page and Parentlink communication system. The newsletter contains information regarding curriculum, athletic, and activity news. Parentlink is a school-to-home communication system that has increased student and parent involvement related to academic progress, student activities, and registration activities. Centennial utilizes an attendance dialer communication system to notify parents of student absences and tardies. In addition, monthly Principal Advisory meetings are held with parents to discuss school issues as a part of the school improvement plan.
