Check out this week's Central activities!

The Central girls basketball team, in collaboration with the Central Athletic Boosters, raised money for Edgewood-Colesburg senior and basketball player, Rachel Eglseder. Here is what they had to say and present to Rachel last night between games:
Rachel is currently battling Hodgkin’s Lymphoma, and through it all, she has shown incredible strength, courage, and determination. She is a true example of what it means to keep fighting, each & every day.
The Central basketball team wanted to show Rachel that she is not alone. At our home games in December, players came together to sell purple beads — the color of lymphoma awareness — as a symbol of hope, unity, and support.
We want to recognize the Clayton Ridge & Maquoketa Valley communities as well as the Central & Ed-Co communities for their support during this fundraiser. Because of the amazing communities we live in, we were able to raise $645 to help Rachel and her family during this journey.
Rachel, this check represents more than a donation. It represents teams, schools, and communities standing beside you every step of the way. We are proud to support you, we believe in you, and we will continue to cheer you on.
Please join us in showing your love and support for Rachel — because we are all Team Rachel.

Last night’s basketball games had an extra boost of energy thanks to our Central Pep Band and the alumni who joined them in the stands! 🎶❤️🤍
The pep band creates a fun, loud atmosphere in the gym and made the night even more special. A big thank you as well to Freedom Bank for bringing the large flag for the National Anthem. We’re grateful for the support that helps make nights like this at Central so memorable.

Our 3rd graders are diving into their crawfish science unit! 🦞🔬

Our Central Pep Band will be bringing the energy to the gym, and tonight is extra special as Central Band alumni have been invited to join in the fun. It’s always great to see past and present musicians come together to support the Warriors.
