Centerville's schools operate on the following times:
Phone numbers, fax numbers and addresses for each school can be found on our Contact Us page.
Please complete a Transcript Request form. Respond to all sections and see directions for submitting at the bottom of the page. This form may also be used to request special education and immunization records. There is a $5 fee per copy.
Please see our Bus Riding Policies page.
When we approach the stop, your child's driver is counting the number of children who might be at that stop. He or she will make sure the same number of children get on the bus to ensure no one has slipped, fallen or dropped something into what we call the "danger zone" where they cannot be seen.
This is especially important in the winter months. It's dark out and there may be snow or ice that the children could slip on.
No, you do not have to call us! We ask our drivers to stop at each address as this will keep them on schedule for the next stop.
If your child rides a Special Needs bus, please call the Transportation office only if you are running late to the bus stop. We will do our best to accommodate the late arrival.
We use a state-of-the-art routing software. Each driver carries on their bus two, and maybe three, different routes printed on paper. These are for our AM, midday and PM routes. They include turn for turn and stop for stop information for the driver.
Your child's regular driver soon commits this and your child's name and stop to memory.
When we use a sub, they simply refer to the route sheet and follow it. However, they are nowhere near as familiar with addresses, etc. as your regular driver and will probably run behind schedule.
No, please complete the Temporary Transportation Change Form. Fill it out completely and legibly, then send the form to your child's school. Please, no notes on any type of scrap paper.
The best thing to do is use the Temporary Transportation Change Form referred to earlier. Many children forget to present the note until they are leaving school. As you can imagine, with thousands of bus riders, this creates very confusing few moments, especially for younger children and their teachers.
First of all, we believe we have one of the most thoughtful and professional group of drivers a school district could have! However, if you feel you witnessed an unsafe act, please get the bus number and give us a call with the details.
Also, feel free to call us with any compliments you have, and we will pass them along to the driver!
Just as any other profession, we have drivers who get sick, or they have a sick child at home, a dental appointment, etc. With that in mind, we will use a sub to run your child's route. These are very professional people; however, they have no way of knowing everything your regular driver does. We will be there, and we will get your children picked up and dropped off safely, but we will probably run a little behind schedule.
If we have a scheduled two-hour delay or the superintendent determines the weather is bad enough for a delay, morning pick-up time for bus riders will be two hours later than the normal schedule.
Delayed start times for schools will be:
* Dismissal time will be 11:50 for AM Preschool and Kindergarten.
** Start of PM Preschool and Kindergarten will be delayed one hour.
End-of-day dismissal times will not change.
Students must be 14 years of age to obtain a work permit. A student may obtain a work permit application at all three middle schools, Centerville High School, Student Services Office or online at the Ohio Department of Commerce.
The student must present in person a completed application when requesting a work permit. An application consists of parental permission/signature, pledge of employer and a physician's certificate (a copy of current athletic physical certification is acceptable). Proof of age in the form of a birth certificate, hospital certificate, birth affidavit or passport must be presented at the time of application. Driver’s licenses are not acceptable as proof of age in accordance with Ohio Wage & Hour regulations.
High school students may present their completed work permit application for processing at their Unit Guidance Office during regular school hours to obtain a permit. Work permit applications for all students may be processed at the Student Services Office, 111 Virginia Ave., Centerville 45458, (937) 433-8841 from 8 a.m.-4 p.m. Monday-Friday. STUDENTS MUST BE PRESENT TO SIGN THE WORK PERMIT.
Students 14-15 years of age are required to have a work permit year round for employment. Students 16-17 years of age are required to have a work permit on file only if they are employed during the school year. Students 16-17 years of age will not be issued a work permit for employment during summer months or when school is not in session.
For each new job under a new employer, the student must present a new Pledge of Employer (OHIO Form III) to obtain a new permit.
