Celebrating 110 years of educational excellence! As we eagerly await the graduation of the Class of 2024, let's take a moment to reflect on Central's pioneering Class of 1914, the trailblazers who laid the foundation for generations to come. Huge gratitude to Marie Lane for preserving this invaluable piece of our school's legacy!
