The Alumni Association meets monthly on the second Monday of the month from September to May. Meetings begin at 6:00 PM at Central High School. Meetings are open and alumni are welcome to attend. This is a great way to learn about the inner-workings of the Alumni Association, get involved, share your thoughts or just listen. We’d love to see you at our next meeting.
