Announcements for 10-16-08
Food Drive Classroom Competition:
As part of the Food Drive, we collect food from the classes here at Central High School. The competition is between the third block classes. We are asking kids to bring in non-perishable food items to their classrooms. This will begin today October 16th and end Friday October 24th. The class with the most pounds of food will win a prize. This is a great help in the fight for hunger in our community and put pounds towards Central’s overall tally. Thank you for your previous participation in this event! 10-17
