CHS AVT Students Capture Knights’ Intensity

 

Centennial Audio Visual Technology II and III students, under the direction of their teacher Mr. Buechner, worked very hard to create their first pre-game video of the year.  The video highlights the commitment and intensity of our Knights football players as they prepare for the season ahead.

CHS Student Carries the Olympic Torch

 

 

 

The Special Olympics are back in the United States after 14 years away, and Centennial’s Yoli Shields was the first to carry the torch in Alpharetta as the torch makes its way from Greece to Los Angeles in June.  Yoli’s team raised $20,000 for the event and were asked to pick up the torch at North Point Parkway. 1A police escort – made up of the Alpharetta and L.A. police departments – guided the runners through town, with the final goal of Los Angeles next month.

To keep up with the torch, visit www.specialolympics.org.

French Classes Energized by Guest Speakers

Yesterday two students from the volunteer program Up with People came to speak to students in AP French, French 4 Honors, and French 3 classes.  The speakers come from all over the world and generally participate in this program as a gap year between high school and college.  Speaking entirely in French, these volunteers spoke to “spark people into action in meeting the needs of their communities, countries and the world while building bridges of understanding as a foundation for world peace.” (www.upwithpeople.org)
