PreK Graduation Ceremony at Central Elementary School
There will be no school on Monday, May 27, 2024, in observance of Memorial Day. Have a safe and enjoyable holiday weekend!
Parents,
Our after school program has finished for the school year. Please remind your child that he/she will go home as usual each day now.
Attention Dumas School District Parents:
Dumas School District is a Community Eligibility Provision (CEP) denoted school.
1.) This means that during the day (at school) all kids eat free regardless of income/etc.
2.) Because our school is CEP, any household that received SNAP or EBT WILL automatically receive $40 per child per 3 month summer period as a summer nutrition bonus.
3.) For households NOT receiving SNAP or EBT benefits already, but would like to see if your child/children qualifies because you are under the "CEP umbrella because of the school", you CAN fill out the application to see if your child/children will receive the summer benefit. They will verify income to determine yes/no.
Letters and applications will be sent home. Applications can be turned in at a DHS Local County Office or emailed to SummerEBT@dhs.arkansas.gov . Please contact a DHS Local County Office with any questions regarding the Summer EBT program.
Family Night is back! Mark your calendars for May 30th from 3:30-6:30pm. Please join us for an evening of information and family fun. We look forward to seeing you there!

More pictures from the eclipse!!
Eclipse Gazing at Central Elementary!!!
On Monday, April 8, 2024, a solar eclipse will be visible on a path across the United States, including Dumas. Even though our district is not in the path of totality, we will experience a 96.9% eclipse of the sun. We want our students to witness and be engaged in this extraordinary event, as the next total solar eclipse over our state will not happen until August 2045.
As always, student safety is our top priority. Looking directly at the sun is dangerous - the only safe way to look is through special filters, like the ones in certain "eclipse glasses." We have certified safety glasses for all of our students to wear Monday while outside viewing the eclipse, but we need your help. Please stress to your child that it is crucial to keep the glasses on the entire time he/she is viewing the eclipse. If your child refuses to wear the glasses or takes them off outside, he/she will have to go inside with other students and a teacher.
If you want your child to participate in the outdoor viewing of the eclipse on Monday, April 8, please sign and return this permission slip by Monday morning. If you do NOT want your child to be outside during the eclipse, he/she will remain inside with a teacher and other students, and will view the eclipse online.
