About Centennial School District

The Centennial School District is comprised of Warminster Township, Upper Southampton Township, and Ivyland Borough. It has 5,400 students in grades K-12.

Since 1727, the Centennial community has valued educational excellence and innovation. In 1727, William Tennent founded Log College, a humble log structure, in Warminster. Log College was Pennsylvania's first college and one of the oldest in America.

Its first graduates founded Princeton University and 130 other colleges and universities. An historic monument marks the site, and the current Log College Middle School sits adjacent to the location. William Tennent led "The Great Awakening", an educational enlightenment that spread through the colonies.
