Thank you CMS Students!
Posted on 04 May 2012.
Dear Central Middle School Students, Parents and Staff,
It is such a privilege to live in a community that is so caring and supportive! When praying for something, sometimes you get what you ask for, but other times you get so much more. Mrs. Navarro is a 7th grade Math teacher at Central Middle School. After learning that her unborn grandson has a serious medical condition, she asked her students if they would please keep him in their thoughts and prayers.
A member of the CMS Student Council approached Mrs. Navarro and asked if the Student Council could do a fundraiser for her grandson; hesitant, she said yes. They sold red, cut-out hearts as a symbol of love and support for the Navarro family. During the 3 days of fundraising, the students and staff of Central Middle School raised almost $2,000 for Mrs. Navarro’s grandson!
The Navarro family would like to thank the students, parents and staff of Central Middle School for their selfless generosity. We cannot express how grateful we are that God has blessed us with such a loving and supportive school and community. Your support will make our upcoming journey much easier. Thank you, again, from the bottom of all of our hearts!
The Navarros

Central Clean Up Day Volunteers Clean 15 Miles of Central Roads
Posted on 03 May 2012.

Central Leadership for Tomorrow headed up an effort last Saturday morning to clean up several of Central’s main roadways, including Greenwell Springs Rd, Sullivan Rd, Hooper Rd, Joor Rd, Gurney Rd, Wax Rd and Denham Rd. Over 100 volunteers came from around the city to help. Please remember not to litter, especially out of your car window. Another easy step you can take is to make sure to tie up all of your trash in trash bags before putting it into your garbage can for pickup. When the garbage truck picks up your trash can, loose trash can and will fall out onto the side of the road if it is not bagged. Take a small step today to keep our city clean.
Thank you to everyone who came last Saturday to help clean up our city, including groups like the CHS football and soccer teams and the Central Bloomers Club. Help keep our roads clean – remember to bag your trash at home and to dispose of your garbage in the proper place.
The planning team for the Central Clean Up included Alexandra Peairs, Mike Gardner, Jayme Skelton, Jonathan Starns, Aaron Moak, Kimberly and Jason Ellis, John Dauzat and Belinda Sheridan. Thank you to everyone who came out to help!
