Center Drive School

8th graders working on CPR certification. Thank you to Orrington Fire & Rescue for your support with this!

The talented students of the Beginner, Concert, and Jazz Bands, along with the Chorus, are eager to bring the joy of the holiday season to you with their winter concert! Please join us in celebrating the hard work and dedication of these young musicians! The Band/Chorus Concert is on Wednesday, December 6 at 6:30pm.

Our Lost and Found is ever growing! Please take the time when you are in the building for our concerts (Band/Chorus December 6, K-4 December 15) or for sporting events, to check out the Lost and Found for any items belonging to your little elves. All unclaimed items will be bagged and donated on December 20.

No school means that our Boys' games against Bangor Christian have been postponed. A new date will be announced at a later time.

AOS #47 The Airline, Dedham and Orrington School Departments: Due to the inclement weather school will be closed today.

Good Luck, Eagles!

Thank you to basketball mom and AOS 47 employee, Randi Theriault, for designing and creating our fantastic new locker room signs for use during the basketball season! Another reason to be so proud of our school community!

Our first games of the season are here! CDS Girls Home vs Glenburn and CDS Boys @ Glenburn. A Teams play first at 3:30. Come on out and support our teams! Let's Go, Eagles!

A huge shout out to Coach Brian Grant, and all those who participated in and supported the ORC's Free-Throw-A-Thon, which funded our new basketball uniforms! And "thank you" to Showcase Homes and Ball Motorsports for their generous donation of new basketballs! The community support of our athletic programs is very much appreciated! Our basketball and cheer season kicks off on Wednesday, November 29 with games against Glenburn.

Winter Sport Photos are this Friday, December 1. Student athletes should already have their uniforms, because it is also game day, but this is an extra reminder to come to school in the morning prepared for Sport Photos! 207Photo is a "view first" company, which means that you do not order photos ahead of time. Instead, please follow the directions in the graphic below to access the photo gallery.

PTG's annual Holiday Kids' Shop is right around the corner! The PTG is still accepting donations and welcoming volunteers.
