Centennial
On October 7, 2026, the Board of Education voted to approve the district’s closure and consolidation recommendation.
Centennial was included in the recommendation and will close at the end of this school year.
For families with students currently in grades K-4, your boundary school for the 2027-28 school year is Arapahoe Ridge Elementary.

Considerations
- Elementary school K-5 enrollment of less than 300.
- Two-round elementary school (two classes per grade level).
- Unable to offer all specials classes (art, music, P.E., and IDEAS Lab) every day.
- Opportunity to fully consolidate the entire student population into a nearby school that is newer and has a larger building footprint that can accommodate growth and expansion.
