Central Elementary School

Today, Mrs. Skaggs' class took some time to talk about 9/11 and the events that happened in our country. We also focused on the many helpers and heroes who stepped up that day-firefighters, police officers, doctors, nurses, first responders and everyday people. As part of our social-emotional learning, we talked about what it means to be brave, kind, and willing to help others. Students shared ways they can be helpers at school, at home, and in our community.

Our 4th graders sharpened their math skills today by reviewing how to round numbers to the nearest hundred thousand! Then, they used dry-erase markers to work addition problems right on their desks. Learning is always more fun when we can write on the desks! 🔢✏️🌟

🖤💛 Celebrating What We’ve Built Together! 💛🖤

There is so much to be proud of across Johnson County Schools. This graphic represents more than programs, resources, facilities, and numbers—it represents a commitment to our students and the people who serve them every single day.

Through the leadership of Superintendent Thom Cochran and the dedication of educators, staff, families, community partners, and supporters, our district continues to invest in the whole child, high-quality instruction, strong relationships, and opportunities for every student.

More than $35 million in grant funding, expanded student supports, innovative teaching and learning, and investments in our future are helping us build something special together.

At Central Elementary, we are proud to be part of the Johnson County Schools family and excited about where we’re headed.

Love. Learn. Lead. Leave a Legacy.
