Programs
Centennial’s professional educators implement the Wyoming state standards, with a strong emphasis on literacy, math, and research-based, creative instructional strategies.
All Centennial students are provided with math, language arts, science, and social studies on a daily basis. Our students are provided with health and physical education, with a strong focus on outdoor recreation activities. We also provide a choice of electives and exploratory courses including woods/drafting, metals, family and consumer science, Spanish, computer science, and digital environment. Fine and performing arts choices include visual art, vocal music, band, orchestra, and exploring music which offers a variety of instrument and music technique experiences.
Each grade level is split into two "CORES" per grade level which is composed of core subjects (math, ELA, science, and social studies). Students will have a weekly advisory period dedicated to progress monitoring, community, building, pillar recognition, and setting students up for success in thier other classes. Additional supports include tutoring for math and language arts during the school day, before and after-school homework club, tiered interventions for both academic and social-emotional needs, and opportunities for assessment correction/retakes.
Activities & Athletics
Activities: Centennial has the WEB Program, which stands for "Where Everybody Belongs." This is a program that consists of select 8th graders who work with our 6th graders to ensure their transition to middle school is a positive and successful one. These students get the opportunity to work with the same peers all year long! Other activities include Art Club, Anime Club, Archery Club, Drama, Centennial Singers, Jazz Band, Orchestra Strings Club, Spanish Club, Student Council, Yearbook Club, and Robotics Club.
Athletics: Centennial students also have the opportunity to participate in a range of athletics including volleyball, football, basketball, golf, soccer, swimming, wrestling, cross country, track, and Nordic skiing.
