Certainly not least… The CHS band and Kittens competed at Disney and finished 2nd in the nation for Game Day Live at ESPN studios. We are proud of their outstanding achievements. The City of Central has amazing and very talented students and we couldn’t be prouder of each of you! We certainly cannot forget Willy, the mascot, who participated in the routine and even danced! Everyone loves Willy!
