This fall Central added a new course to the High School offerings. The new class, titled Athletic Officiating, is taught by Mr. Wiley using the RefReps curriculum in partnership with the Iowa High School Athletic Association. The course is designed to get high school students involved in the athletic officiating. Central has 12 students enrolled in the course and tonight three of those students were on the mat for our Junior High Boys Meet - Braxton, Mayleigh, and Reese. All three students have passed the test to become certified wrestling officials in Iowa and are working tonight under certified official Joe Koehn and Tim Rupard to gain experience.

Thank you, Officer Mitch, for teaching our K/1 kids about crossing the street safely! Officer Mitch first read a story and then helped the kids practice safe crossing. It takes a village and we are thankful for ours!
