December 12th, 2025- Today at Centennial Elementary School, the carbon monoxide detector sounded an alarm in the kitchen. We moved all staff and students out of the kitchen and into the gym. The Polo Fire Department was called, and they checked the kitchen. Through their investigation, it was found that our carbon monoxide was at the "end of its life" and was sounding for that reason. No carbon monoxide was detected. We have replaced the detector. Thank you to the Polo Fire Department and Polo Police Department for their help in protecting our students. This was complete before 7:46 a.m.

Nine contestants took to the stage on December 10, 2025, for Aplington Middle School’s

became the runner-up. Asher will represent Polo at the regional spelling bee, which will be held
February 19, 2026, at Dixon High School. We wish Asher the best as he prepares for this year’s
