September 24 Newsletter - Student Achievement Results

Message from the Superintendent

Dear Students and Parents,

 On behalf of the faculty, staff, and board of education, I would like to welcome you back for the start of a new school year.  I’ve learned over the years that life is full of changes and opportunities, and when those opportunities come around, we should strive to grasp them before they slip away.  This past summer is an example, as I became the superintendent of Central schools.  I truly enjoyed serving the district as the high school principal, and feel strongly that I have much to offer as the superintendent of schools. 

 I passionately believe that our school district is an outstanding district that has the opportunity to become a model for others to emulate.  Our schools are known for strong community support and I believe that this shows in the quality of our students.

 This calendar is a reference tool to provide information about our district and the activities that take place on a day-to-day basis.  Please use this calendar and our district web page, www.cusd3.com as reference sources to help keep you aware of our school activities.

 In order for our children to succeed, it is critical that parents become actively engaged in their child’s education. By becoming involved and letting our children know that we value education and have expectations for their academic progress, together we can work to raise the achievement level for all students in the district.

 Please feel free to call me or stop by the board office if ever I can be of service to you.  Our central office staff of Larissa, Tracy, and myself will do all we can to help answer your questions.

 Welcome back and I look forward to working with you this year!

 Marty Cook, Superintendent
