High School Musical is based on a Disney Channel Original Movie released in 2006, which was one of the most watched films of the year.  It is a very modern take on Shakespeare’s, Romeo and Juliet.

In our own Central Lyon production of this hit show, Troy Bolton (Drew Kupferschmidt), and Gabriella Montez (Claire Reiter) come from two different worlds: Troy the Basketball guy and Gabriella the Smart, Stunning Geek. When they meet at a New Year's Eve party they instantly click. When they see each other again at East High School, they decide to audition for their high school's musical. The social cliques they belong to don't approve of this new friendship and try to separate them. At the same time, drama queen Sharpay Evans (Amber Langholdt) and her brother Ryan (David Nebelsick), the co-captains of the Drama department, try in every way to prevent Troy and Gabriella from participating in the callback auditions... Can Troy and Gabriella lead their friends to a more open-minded thinking and acceptance of one another? Or will their friends win?

Elementary students at Central Lyon are taught that our four core expectations are to Respect All, Offer Help, Accept Responsibility, and Reach Expectations (ROAR). Staff acknowledge students following those expectations by giving them “ROAR cards” to point out what they were doing well. The cards are collected in a tote by the office. The cards are counted and six ROAR cards are drawn to recognize students who have demonstrated our Central Lyon ROAR expectations during that month. These students are known as “Lion Kids of Character” and are awarded a certificate to thank them for demonstrating our core expectations. Congratulations to these Lion Kids of Character! Way to ROAR!

Congratulations to the October Kids of Character! Way to work hard and ROAR!

Here's a reminder of our student drop-off procedures. Below is a map to help illustrate those procedures.

Utilize Story Street from the North

• Each morning, families are asked to refrain from turning north on Story Street. This helps ease congestion and safety concerns for our students. Whether you are arriving from the east or west on 12th Avenue, please use Marshall Street to travel north. From 10th Avenue, families may enter Story Street heading south.

Drive & Drop

• Families are encouraged to utilize the Drive & Drop lane to the south of the Elementary/Middle School Office. Please pull forward as far as possible.

Drop Off Parking 

• If you should need to accompany your student into the building, please use the parking spaces north of the Elementary/Middle School office.

Street Parking

• Finally, parking on the east of Story Street is reserved for residents.

Thank you for your help following these procedures and keeping our students safe during the morning drop off. If you have any questions about these practices, please do not hesitate to contact Superintendent Brent Jorth.
