The Knights of Columbus have been contributing to the Central Special Education department for the past several years. With their Tootsie Roll Drives, they help fund supplies for the department, including wobble chairs, wireless keyboards, fidgets and other items that may be helpful for the students. A banquet was recently held at St. Joseph Parish Hall, where the Knights presented a check for $500 to Central's Special Education teacher, Joan Frieden. Thank you Knights of Columbus for your continued support!

National School Counseling Week is February 6-10, 2023. This is a week set aside to focus public attention on the unique contribution our school counselors make in the lives of our students. National School Counseling Week highlights the tremendous impact school counselors can have in helping our students in a multitude of areas. While working in a partnership with parents and other educators, they help our students work through challenges they may encounter, while focusing on their abilities, strengths, interests and talents. Counselors wear many hats and helping guide and assist our students during their high school careers is one of the best gifts we can give our students as they near graduation.
We are so thankful for our school counselors, Mrs. Heather Lechtenberg and Mrs. Angie Bergan. School counselors make a difference! Please be sure when you see them, to give them a BIG THANK YOU for all they continue to do for us here at Central!
