Thank you again to Brown’s Family of Car Dealership for supporting our student-of-the-month program. These programs allow us to recognize one Student-Athlete and one Fine Arts student for individual character and habits that lead to success. Thank you to Beth Rentschler, Director of High School Partnerships for attending today's assembly.
The November Student-Athlete of the Month is recognized for their hard word at practice and leading by example. This student-athlete is known for being responsible in meeting high expectations instead of coaches having to hold them accountable to those expectations. Academically this student-athlete is never a concern, and coaches also never have to wonder if they are ready for an upcoming competition. This student-athlete has matured into a young adult that younger students at Central can model themselves after. The November Student-Athlete of the Month is Nick Deitchler.

The past few years we have put a heavy emphasis on building stronger relationships at Central. Our next step in doing so is to tell you a little about ourselves! Each week you will see posts highlighting a team member. Feel free to comment to tell us what we have in common!
Meet Mrs. Meghan Bergan!

Central Varsity Girls Basketball Team participated in Rivalry Saturday this year, taking on Maquoketa Valley. The schools at Rivalry Saturday wore #LisaStrong cancer shirts. This was in support of Lisa Brinkmeyer, who is fighting brain cancer. Brinkmeyer is a Hall of Fame inductee in volleyball and basketball and is now the Assistant Director for the IGHSAU. Central and Maquoketa Valley posed for a picture before the game. The Warriors defeated the Wildcats 48-40 to raise their record to 2-0. The Warriors are back in action this week on Tuesday against Kee High at Central.

Camp Courageous days are some of our favorite days!

Congratulations to Central band students Olivia White and Staci Herman for being selected to play in the Upper Iowa Conference Honor Band on November 14th. They had a full day of rehearsals that ended in a fantastic performance with other students in the conference. These students along with all 5-12 Central band members will be performing December 8th at 7pm.
We look forward to seeing you there!

5th graders had fun with a card game called Manos Nerviosas to help them learn numbers 1-13 in Spanish! The game is similar to Slap Jack, but instead of slapping just the Jacks, players slap the pile if the card number matches the number they are counting.

November FFA Meeting

Fourth graders earned a game day and an opportunity to decorate cookies by earning 20,000 points in MobyMax. Moby allows students to practice all types of skills across subject areas. Great work 4th graders!




Thanks to Tony Koppes and Tyler Hanson for helping out Mr. Bergan and the students by doing the heavy lifting for us and unloading our project steel.

Honor Squad!
Maddison and Beth are performing today at halftime of the 2A at 10:00 am and 3A games at 1:00 pm, along with 200 other cheerleaders from across the state. A lot of hard work and practice has gone into learning a new cheer and two dance routines in just two days of practice.
Congratulations girls!
