Central High School

GSA will be coming to Central on May 29th for a doubleheader in softball and baseball. The MPA has granted up the ability to play two, five inning games. The games will start at 3:00 PM.
Thanks.

Today's BB/SB games at GSA have been postponed.

MAKE UP DATE: The CHS softball team will be traveling to Orono on Thursday May 7th for a 4:30 PM game. The bus will leave at 2:45 PM.

The softball field conditions are not playable today at Orono. The softball game will be moved until another date. Baseball will still be going to UMaine for that game today.

Due to field conditions at the baseball outfield and the rain coming in today and this evening, we will play Friday's baseball game at the University of Maine. The varsity softball game will be played at OHS. Both games have a 4:30 start time.

There will be no Track practise today.
Softball will be in the gym from 3-5 and baseball from 5-7 PM.
Thanks.

We have flipped the home and away CHS games for the GSA baseball and softball games on the schedule to help GSA with an awards night. Thanks for the understanding.

Good morning CHS Community. Two years ago, we bought lock boxes to house cell phones in as we read about and recognized the impacts cell phones have on a student's capacity to be engaged in their school day. As you know, we made the decision to move to a totally cell phone free day, not only in classrooms, but in the hallways and in the cafeteria for lunch time. At the high school level, we asked students to be responsible and to keep their phones off and stored away in the lock boxes, their lockers, or in backpacks. We have confiscated them when they did not comply with that. At this point, we have students who continually take advantage of that policy, keeping them in their pockets, going into bathrooms for extended periods to use them, or leaving their classes to find other ways to get on their phones. Because of this, we are going to make a shift in our procedures. Students will now be required to place their phones in the lock boxes each day. Teachers will have them sign them in and out. For student drivers, our suggestion is that phones remain in their vehicles for the day. Consequences remain the same for failure to follow this procedure. Phones will be confiscated every time we see them. The second confiscation will result in detention and third and subsequent confiscations will necessitate parents retrieval of the phone from school. Cell phones are a distraction and we are doing this in the best educational interests of your students. I am happy to address parent concerns and appreciate anything you can do to help prepare your students for this change which will take effect on April 12th as we start the fourth quarter.

Baseball/Softball game changes:

The May 13th games @ Penquis has been moved to Friday the 15th. 4:30 Start, Bus 2:15 PM.

The May 20th games vs.M.A. is now changed to 5/21 at 4:00 PM.

Good Luck to all the UTC CHS student's competing in Skill USA over the next two days.

The CHS Robotics Club had its last meet last week at John Bapst High School. The team finished the preliminary round as 10th overall out of 40 teams, the best finish they have had all season. This demonstrates the improvement the team has had over the course of this year's robotics season. The team also won the first match in the knockout round of 16, but lost in the second round. Again a vast improvement from the earlier meets. And finally the team was awarded a trophy for receiving the Judges Award. This award is given for a variety of reasons, from sportsmanship, design work and overall improvement .Congratulations to Aaron Dyer, Matthew Moon, Violet Annis and Ronald Cronkite.
