This year's recipients of the 2024 P & G Scholarship (from CHS) were Celeste Guiterezz and Brandon Webb.
Both Celeste and Brandon spoke highly about the programs at the CTC (PLTW and Welding) as part of their learning experience at Cape Central and how those programs were instrumental in their future plans to attend MO S&T. One other student, Noland Beussink, spoke about the CTC in his reception speech as well. This says a lot about the CTC and the instructors. These kids were top notch students, many with ACT scores over 30. Each student that received a scholarship also received an invitation to come back to P & G to work in management.
Mrs. Ward hosted an End of the Year party for all her students and to celebrate the seniors in the group. Good luck seniors!
In honor of Teacher Appreciation Week, teachers participated in destressing activities such as painting, laser tag and dance.
Ms. Allen's kids participated in this week's fun by dressing up for pj day and Dress Like a Teacher.
Central Light was a great night with art, poetry, and music. We may have had a small group, but they were some of CHS finest. I think this speaks to everyone who teaches these talented kids.
