PRINCIPAL’S MESSAGE

We have had an incredible month here at Central Senior.  As we continue to focus on academics, athletics, and the arts; many very successful events took place.

Academically, On April 20th, we had our School Effectiveness Visit.  Administrators, teachers and superintendents visited our classrooms, talked to our students, and observed the caring, creative culture here at CSS.  This was a very positive experience for both students and staff and we were very pleased with the affirming feedback.  We also hosted the, “White Ribbon” campaign for our students to address such issues as Violence Against Woman, Cyber-bullying and Eating Disorders.

Athletically, both basketball teams brought home the County Trophy and we would like to thank Mr. Lowell, Mr. Bratina and Mr. Borland for their expertise.   As well, Ms. McLean and Ms. Millar are practicing with their skipping teams for the upcoming competition in May. 

The Arts were celebrated with outstanding performances of the musical,  “Fiddler on the Roof” …. truly a fabulous show and a wonderful experience for our students. We wish to thank the entire staff under the direction of Mr. Smeaton, for their dedication and team work.  Mr. Smeaton also travelled to the Kiwanis Festival where the Central Senior Band brought home the “GOLD”

Our wonderful parent council ran a very successful magazine campaign and we would like to extend our gratitude for their on-going support.  Thank you to the office staff and Ms. Simpson who organized this at the school level.

I would like to thank the incredible staff here at Central Senior, who give of their time and talent to engage students, parents and the community.  THANK YOU STAFF

GRADUATION…KEEP THE DATE

Our annual graduation ceremony will be held on Tuesday, June 26th at LCVI. A dance for graduating students only will follow in the Central gym. All grade 8 students were measured for their graduation gowns in March. Since all students have rented black academic gowns, the need for expensive or elaborate clothing is not necessary. We strongly encourage our students to dress nicely but casually. There is no need to purchase expensive formal clothing.

BASKETBALL

The boys’ basketball team had a perfect undefeated season. Both at the zone and County tournaments the team played with tremendous skill and sportsmanship. All players had a chance to contribute both offensively and defensively in each victory. Mr. Lowell and Mr. Borland would like to congratulate the boys on a terrific season. 

Congratulations go out to the Central Senior Girls’ Basketball Team!  The girls had a perfect season going undefeated in the Zone and County Tournaments to capture the County Championship.  Team members included:  Carla Ross, Keaton Briere, Taylor Hoeful, Kate LaMantia, Kathleen Alfredsson, Gillian Steven, Kaylee Mullen, Julia Weitz, Carley Beukeboom, Madison Scott, Daisy Shannon and Carson Brown.

SCHOOL COUNCIL NOTES

Our next school council meeting will be held on Monday, May 7 at 7:00 p.m. in the Library. All parents are invited to attend.

MUSIC at CENTRAL

Mr. Smeaton is getting our band geared up for another musical day in May.  Everyone is looking forward to Mass Band Day on May 11.

May 31, 2012 Lindsay Lipdub
