What makes Central Catholic High School a SPECIAL place?
If I didn't love my 4 years of high school, I wouldn't be back working at CCHS. This place is amazing!!! My favorite part is watching the kids grow. Knowing some students come to me for advice, or even a shoulder to cry on, means the world to me. It shows they trust me, and I may be doing something good in their lives.
