GREETINGS RAIDER NATION!
As you may know by now, we unfortunately will not be able to invite anyone other than immediate family to our graduation ceremony this year. However Central Public Schools will be broadcasting the graduation beginning at 5:45 PM on KLGB Radio (1310 AM/96.1 FM).
If you have friends and family that would like to listen to our graduation ceremony and live outside the radio play area, I would encourage you to download the KLGB App, which can be found at https://www.radio.net/s/kglb .
Additionally, we will be streaming the graduation ceremony live on our Raider Recap Facebook page. The link to the live feed can be found by using the following link:

Please feel free to share this information with any extended family and friends that would like to attend our graduation ceremony at a distance.
As always, thank you so much for your support of our students and school


The Central school district is going to be holding a staff parade. This is a way for staff and student’s to wave goodbye and share in some positive memories before summer.
This parade will be held on Thursday, May 28th, 2020 from 12pm-3pm
The following times are approximate:
12:00pm - Start the parade through NYA
1:30pm - Arrive in Hamburg
2:15pm - Arrive in Cologne
The order of the parade is flexible, but we will attempt to have ECFE, Elementary, Middle, then High School.
Please see the attached routes for each town so that you can find a space on the route if we aren’t going to the street you live on.
We hope to see you all out there!
