Welcome to Centre City School! Our main priority is the growth and achievement of our students. We are constantly working to develop a school culture that is flexible, collaborative, innovative, and supportive of efforts to improve achievement of all of our students.

To fully support a child's academic success, parents need to take an active role in the educational process. Parental involvement is strongly encouraged and welcomed at Centre City. Our PTO is an organization that emphasizes parents and teachers working together to help meet the needs of our children. Other organizations and committees such as the District Advisory Council, our School-Based Planning Team, and other specific committees offer parents and community members the opportunity to become involved in the school decision-making process.

Each month our students are recognized for their accomplishments in the classroom. Teachers select students based on specific criteria to receive the "Student of the Month" and "Caring Kid" awards. A school assembly is held to present these awards to these special students in front of their peers. These programs develop school pride and praises students for their hard work and success.

The faculty and staff of Centre City School are dedicated to the premise that all students have a right to the very best education. I wish to assure you that we will continue to devote our efforts towards improving the quality of our school programs at Centre City.  Join us in our journey to "soar above and beyond" the rest! 


Centre City School is one of three elementary schools in Mantua Township. The school houses a special needs preschool and regular kindergarten through third grade population of approximately 486 students. Our school curriculum includes programs in art, music, library, physical education, computer education, Spanish, speech, guidance, basic skills instruction, and enrichment. Each of these special areas are taught by a certified teacher holding the appropriate teaching certification.  Other exciting activities that take place each year are the art show, curriculum fair, and field day.

With regard to our school facility, the Centre City School has internet connections in each classroom which are connected to a Local Area Network. The Local Area Network is supported by a fiber optic connection which provides for the fastest possible communications both within and outside the school building. The school highlights a state of the art computer lab, a modern media center, full size gymnasium-cafeteria and a well equipped playground.
