Several bids were also approved and forwarded to the June 12 school board meeting.
With a unanimous, 3-0, vote, the Centennial Operations Committee approved a plan that will allow the district to seek local non-profit organizations that will accept donated classroom furniture from Stackpole and Longstreth when the buildings are closed. The measure will now go before the school board at the June 12 meeting. Assistant Superintendent Bill Gretton said he had gone through both buildings and made note of which items would be transferred to either McDonald Elementary or Davis Elementary. He said, in general, that most of the transferred furniture will come from Longstreth since it was in better shape than many of the Stackpole items.

The Centennial School Board had planned to discuss impending changes to the elementary school bell schedule at Monday evening's Operations Committee Meeting, but the item did not make the agenda.
Centennial School District recently proposed a change in the bell schedules at the elementary schools for the 2012-13 school year. The plans were met with much opposition from parents of children in the district.

No I didn't like their spending on the stadium, or the new schools. I'm tired of 75% of every dollar going to the distict. I'm tired of writing to the SB members who don't listen and still do whatever they want. I don't like the fact that they raised their spending limit to get around the community vote. I'm upset that they never offered Leary to Warminster Township and now we have issues with … more ›
