This morning at Central we had a first. During PE class Carson Placek earned his black belt for the Jump Rope Ninja Challenge on the first day of the Jump Rope Unit! Carson had to complete 965 jumps to earn each of his belts and did it in under 30 minutes.
Every year at Central each grade spends 4 class periods on the Jump Rope Ninja Challenge where they work to earn belts by completing a certain number of consecutive jumps for each level of belt. Each year about 10 students, grades K-6, earn a black belt. Carson is now the first person to do it in a single class period. Congratulations Carson!



Next Saturday, January 25th, is Nerf Night at Central from 2 to 6 p.m. Nerf blasters, darts, and eye protection will be provided. We will be set up in Central's gymnasium, and door #1 will open at 2.
This is one of our Family PE Nights hosted by the Elementary Physical Education Program. For more information on this or other Family PE Nights, visit the Elementary PE Website, which can be found under Faculty Websites on the schools' webpage.

7th grade art students made ornaments for Pinnacle this year - truck stop themed, using specific color schemes. Unfortunately, they were not able to hang the ornaments themselves due to the weather, so I don't have a photo of their sweet, smiling faces, but the ornaments are now officially hung. Be sure to check them out when you swing through Pinnacle!

It is not ideal for a student to have 5 Semester Tests in a day, but it is also not ideal to have those tests wait until a January return. No students should be in the situation where they have 5 core, academic tests scheduled with the new schedule. Flexibility will be exercised by classroom teachers to accommodate student needs.
We know we will be missing many students for activities (Wrestling, BBB, Gymnastics) Friday who have tests yet to take. Students will work with teachers to take exams prior to early dismissal, where possible, or schedule them at an opportunity that works for both student and teacher. Exams not taken prior to the extended break, will be made up, as necessary, when we return to start semester two in January. We will also be flexible as to not overwhelm students over-testing on a single day.
This is not a good scenario, but working together, we can conquer the challenge!

Tioga Schools will not have school today (Thursday, December 19th) due to weather and road conditions. There will also be no after school activities.
