Focus on the Fabulous
Congratulations are in order for our wrestling team. Four of our wrestlers placed at state and our team came home with a 15th-place finish. This is the first time in two decades that we have taken this many wrestlers, qualifying seven to wrestle, and coming home with 4 state awards! Congratulations to Jordan Duran, Aaron Valadez, Martin Palma, Jesus Valadez, and all of the wrestlers and coaches! You made us proud with your performance at State and throughout the year!
Our basketball teams have an exciting week coming up. Our Lady Vikings will be competing in the regional playoffs against Sargent on Tuesday night. The ladies have earned the home-court advantage and will play @ 6:00 pm here in Center! The boys’ team will be on the road, heading to Del Norte, for their playoff challenge. Let’s make sure our teams feel our support and Viking Pride as they start on their paths to VIKING VICTORY!
Rewind
I wanted to take the time to recognize our amazing Counseling Staff. Thanks to all of the resources our district has been able to secure, a great deal of that through the hard work of Katrina Ruggles and her role as Grant Coordinator for the district, we have a strong, effective team in place to meet the needs of our students. We are very blessed to have all of the counselors on staff in our district. Each of them serves in a variety of roles, from teaching cooking classes to coordinating girls’ circles to coordinating circle prompts to checking in on students to meeting with parents and students, our counselors go above and beyond to support our students and staff! Thank you for all you do! Here’s to Jerica Gonzalez, Stephany Rodriquez, Mary Benavidez, Adele Alfson, Kristin Enquist, Celina Espinoza, and Katrina Ruggles!
Fast Forward
