On Friday, October 25th, the students in Knit for a Cause visited 5 Miles East, an alpaca farm near Bloomington. While there, they got to pet the alpacas, learn about the process of shearing an animal and making it into yarn, as well as participating in crafts! They felted alpaca and sheep fiber to make beads for earrings and keychains. They also stuffed grapevine balls with alpaca fiber; these balls will hang from the trees in spring for birds to use the fiber in their nest!
It might have been chilly, but it was smiles all around as they soaked up the information and fun!



Last week, 42 Central Speech students participated in an optional speech contest at Dunlap Middle School.
19 skits, 17 firsts, 2 seconds, and lots of fun!
We are so proud of these dedicated Central students who put so much time into memorizing, rehearsing, and perfecting their speeches! A big thanks to our coaches, Mrs. Woolard and Miss Davidshofer for their time and hard work as well!
Can’t wait to see more from this team! #celebratecentral51
