Dear Central Academy Families:

Welcome to the 2021-22 school year! While last year presented a variety of challenges with all students and families tackling multiple learning environments that consisted of remote learning, online learning, hybrid learning, and finally in-person learning I think it goes without saying that we all are looking forward to the somewhat return of a normal beginning of a school year. I would also like to take this opportunity to thank you for all your support last year to make the year as successful as it was. We could not have done it without you and will need your support more than ever this year! 

Personally, I am very excited to enter year three as the proud principal of Central Academy! As we concluded the end of the 20-21 school year, many new changes were shared with all of you that will directly impact how we provide educational opportunities to our students. These new opportunities were strategically put in place to better maximize the knowledge and skills the amazing staff here at Central Academy possess as well as finding creative and unique ways to allow students to grow not only academically but also in areas of social and emotional learning while also presenting them with leadership skills and opportunities.  Our teachers have used their summer break to not only re-energize themselves but to also prepare themselves for what is sure to be an outstanding year ahead! 

Last year I asked my staff to rethink, reimagine, and re-envision what school could be and I asked you as parents to re-envision what learning looked like. This year I am asking all of us to come together by way of partnership to best support and grow these kiddos as we know the impact of last year has presented some educational as well as social and emotional learning gaps. Through this parent-school partnership I know that we can meet the needs of all learners!

Lastly, I wanted to remind everyone that our social media pages are a great way to stay connected to all the great things that are happening throughout the school year here at Central Academy. You can follow our main Twitter account @Central_MCSD as well as your child’s Classroom Dojo account and join in the fun of what we hope to be an exciting partnership for the 2021-22 school year!

Once again, Welcome Back! Let’s make it a great year here at Central Academy

Sincerely,

Brandon Grubenhoff 

Principal
