Central Parents:
The fundraiser items have been dropped off here at Central. We are getting them organized, sorted and ready to go out.

Thanks to all the students and parents for helping with the fundraiser. The students did great. They made over $10,000 from the fundraiser. We used some of that money to buy a second gaga ball pit. We also plan to add a volleyball net to the outside playground this spring. Also, thanks for all the people that bought items from students at Central.
If for some reason you did not receive an item, it is damaged, or prize was not in package. I will need students name and items. You can either call Steph or Mr. Schaffer at 701-664-3441 or email tim.schaffer@k12.nd.us steph.ramberg@k12.nd.us Those items might not get here by the holidays but will receive shortly after the January 1st.
Happy Holidays

Today, December 16, 2021, the Tioga School District has been informed of an anonymous general threat against all schools across the entire United States via TikTok. Our School Resource Officer has been in contact with the school; he has not found any valid or supporting information that Tioga Schools or its students are being threatened or are in danger.
Please encourage your child to report any threat or safety concern that they hear or see online to an adult in school or at home. The district also uses the StopIt! Bullying app where threats can be report anonymously. Those reports are investigated by school personnel, and are turned over to law enforcement, if necessary.
Thank you for helping our students and staff remain safe in our school and community.
