Students in Mrs. Pryor’s 12th grade World History class explored how their favorite Louisiana dishes are a result of the Colombian Exchange. They investigated the cultural origins of famous dishes such as gumbo and crawfish étouffée and mapped where on the globe the ingredients came from. After investigating eight Louisiana cuisines, they got to enjoy some king cake that was kindly donated by Oak Point in Central.

Big thanks to Mr. Jonathan Sumich from Oak Point for supporting our Wildcats learning!

It was an exciting and memorable weekend for Central High as our Central Wildcat Robotics team earned a spot in the State Championship Tournament.

The team traveled to Springfield High School on February 7th to compete in the Last Chance Tournament, where they faced strong competition throughout the day. After a series of intense matches, the Wildcats advanced to the semifinals, finishing the event with an impressive 7–3 record.

As the awards ceremony began, anticipation and nerves filled the room. After several awards were announced without hearing Central’s name, the team braced for the final honor of the night—the VEX Excellence Award. This prestigious award is the highest recognition in VEX Robotics, celebrating teams that build a high-quality, student-centered robotics program, demonstrate a strong Engineering Notebook, excel in interviews, and rank in the top percentage of qualification and skills matches.

When Central Wildcat Robotics was announced as the Excellence Award winner, the moment marked a full-circle achievement for a team that started the season with little experience. At their first competition in November, held in the same gym, the team spent much of the day troubleshooting a robot that would not move. Since then, these students have demonstrated tremendous growth, perseverance, innovation, and teamwork in reaching this milestone.

The Central High community is incredibly proud of the dedication and determination shown by these students:

Brock Barrett, Zach Bonano, Naiya Kessler, Jet Kroll, Michael Mullen, Devin Reed, Jacob Teed, Braden Whittington, Beau Penton, Cohen Moody, Haydon Johnson

We would also like to thank everyone who came out to support the team during the Five Guys fundraiser night. The strong turnout from our school community made a meaningful impact.

Central Wildcat Robotics will compete at the State Championship Tournament on February 26–27. We wish them the best as they represent Central High on the state stage.

Go Wildcats!

This February, our school coffee shop is showcasing more than a seasonal drink. It’s highlighting student creativity and business skills!

The Coffee of the Month, Chocolate Strawberry, was developed by our entrepreneurship students as part of their student-run business. Inspired by classic Valentine’s flavors, the drink combines rich chocolate with a hint of strawberry for a fun, limited-time offering.

Beyond the flavor, students are gaining hands-on experience in marketing and brand identity. From choosing a seasonal concept to naming and promoting the drink, they’re learning how successful brands create connection and excitement. The “Coffee of the Month” idea builds anticipation, encourages repeat customers, and reinforces the welcoming, creative brand students are shaping.

Every cup sold represents real-world learning in product development, promotion, and customer engagement. When you stop by the coffee shop this month, you’re not just enjoying a new drink. You’re supporting a student-run business and the entrepreneurs behind it!
