Central Tiger TalesA Leader in Me School - April 2020
A Message From Your Principal - TeacherAppreciation Week May 4th
through May 8thDear Central Families,
What a memorable spring this has been for the students and staff
of ourLebanon Community Schools. Never could we have imagined when
ourstudents exited the building on March 12th that we would not
return forthe duration of the 2019-20 school year. Knowing we will
end the yearwithout being present with our students seems very
strange and counterintuitive to the very personalnature of our work
as educators. We de�nitely have missed seeing and working with your
children!
In these unprecedented times, we recognize that the COVID 19
Quarantine has presented a number ofchallenges to our Central
families and all families across the country. Your supportive
partnership inhelping us continue the educational process with your
children means so much to our Centralinstructional team. I am very
proud of our students as they embraced this eLearning journey
withouthesitation and you, our parent community, have contributed
greatly to their success.
It is an annual tradition each spring at Lebanon Community
Schools to celebrate a DistinguishedEducator from each school
building. This honor coincides with our annual celebration of
TeacherAppreciation Week, a national recognition that is set for
next week, May 4th through May 8th this year.It is my honor to
share with you that this year Mrs. Jessica Frederick was selected
by our CentralElementary team as our Distinguished Educator for
2019-2020.
I hope you will join me in saying THANK YOU to our Central
teachers. Their work as professionaleducators is demanding in the
best of times. Their care and concern for creating the best
possibledistance learning opportunities for our students was always
at the forefront of their work. I encourageyou to reach out to your
child’s teacher to share a word of appreciation for their
resilience anddedicated efforts this spring.
Finally, we realize that you may have many questions as we close
out this unique school year.Unfortunately, we have few answers at
this time. Thank you for your continued patience as wenavigate
these uncertain times in education. Be assured that we will
communicate any newdevelopments as they unfold in the weeks
ahead.
Wishing you and your families continued health and safety.
Sincerely,Rebecca Outcalt, Principal

Capturing Kindness!Even though we have been apart for some time
now it is amazing the number of stories we have heardabout acts of
kindness while still being safe. Birthday "car parades", sidewalk
chalk messages, virtualphone calls, special deliveries, and hand
written cards are just a few examples of these thoughtfuldeeds.
Thank you Central Tiger Cubs for still being kind to others during
this time at home. As thefamous saying goes, "In a world where you
can be anything, be kind".
