Centennial serves residents in the communities of Blaine, Centerville, Circle Pines, Lexington and Lino Lakes, Minnesota. Discover what makes Centennial special.
The history of schools in the Centennial area dates back to the mid 1800s. The name "Centennial" was chosen for the school district in 1958. Rather than name the district after one of its cities, since it serves several, a name was needed that would help unite the district. Then school board member Elsa Carlson suggested the name "Centennial" to honor the State of Minnesota's Centennial.

The district has nine departments: Building and Grounds, Business, Community Education, Teaching and Learning, Nutrition, Health, Human Resources, Technology and Transportation.
Voters across our five communities approved $49.9 million in school building bonds to put the District in a position of strength to support our facilities long-term. You chose to invest in the schools to ensure a safe and up-to-date learning enviornment for all students. Thank you!
