CHS Students Tour Georgia State University


 

To culminate a fantastic College Week, 75 Centennial students attended an information session combined with a campus tour at Georgia State University.

CHS Students Visit Atlanta University Center


To celebrate College Week, Centennial took 47 students to the Atlanta University Center to visit three colleges:  Spellman, Morehouse and Clark Atlanta.  The students had the opportunity to visit the campuses plus learn the history surrounding the three colleges.

 

Spanish Language Students Showcase
Creativity and Community Service
 
 
 
 
 
This semester Spanish language students completed a project that offered standards-based skills and creativity plus a community service component. They began by writing and reading Spanish language fable stories containing a moral lesson. The stories were then illustrated and made into children’s books.  Last week, along with their teachers Mr. Lopez and Ms. Badger, the students visited Kinder Care Learning Center and Children’s Ark Academy in Roswell to read their original Spanish fables to the pre-schoolers. Mr. Lopez began this project with students in another district, and he is happy to have Ms. Badger’s collaboration to bring it here to Centennial. Students and teachers had a great time reading their books and making new friends!
