The final bell rang and students streamed out the doors of the school. Where did they all go? Some students got a quick bite to eat and then rushed off to an after-school job. Many worked at a fast-food restaurant such as McDonald's, Burger Chef or Long John Silver's. However, some didn't want to devote all their spare time to a job so they chose the less time-consuming job like baby-sitting and mowing lawns to earn that extra dough. Many teens spent much of their spare time at school for sports practices, music and drama rehearsals, class meetings and use of the library. Several kids went home, got something to eat and watched television, listened to albums or talked on the phone. Many played pinball or pool with their friends for recreation. However, there is one activity that most of us had in common. We came home from working about six hours at school and came home to the relaxing, fun-filled activity of doing HOMEWORK.

ORcnnizmions 30 Organizations Trying to decide which organizations to be involved in was one ot the problems faced by Central kids who wanted to be involved. From day one at CHS, it was obvious that if you had an interest in a particular subject, Central would more than likely have an organization for you. They ranged from Aerospace club, tor high flyers, to Top 30, for the Bearcat who wanted be a songbird. You might have joined Cheerblock where you would yell at ball games, or Publications where you would write about them. Yes, there was a wide range of organizations at Central, but only to fit the wide range of student interests. Some might have thought that there was too much diversification among the organizations and that too much emphasis was placed on the student to become involved and stay unique at the same time. But, wasn’t going to Central a unique experience in itself? And, wasn’t it student, as well as faculty, involvement with school activities that made Central a leader among others?
