TODAY IS A DAY – Periods 1, 2, 4 and 6.

ANNOUNCEMENTS – ALL STUDENTS & STAFF
PRINCIPALS MESSAGE
All students, it is through your hard work that will make Central High School one of the best high schools in the state!
Congratulations to all 1st and 2nd honor students on this high achievement and all the hard work you put into school this year!
All students should continue to work hard to improve on your grades. It is not too late to improve and have the high grades that you expect for the 2nd marking period report cards!
We are now following the new modified block schedule. You can pick up a copy of the schedule in the main office.
All Students must have a photo ID daily for security purposes and your safety. Those students who can not produce one (if asked) will receive detention! If you lost your ID, you need to pay $3 for a new one.
A continuous reminder to all students that if you are “seen” with any hats or electronic devices, you will be asked for them. Also, no card playing in school.
A reminder to all students: If you can not make your scheduled detention day, speak with you house principal for a Thursday or Friday detention.
Any student, unless you are in an after school activity or sport, you are to leave the building at dismissal. The late bus is provided only for detention and those students participating in after-school activities.
Let’s keep our school clean! Please do not walk around with any food or drink. Additionally, some of our neighbors have been complaining about the trash outside of the building. Let’s keep our area and Bridgeport clean…Don’t litter!
