Today, we're proud to feature Issac Boyd, who has made his mark through his involvement in Esports, Scholars Bowl, and Yearbook. His diverse interests and contributions have added much to our school community.
Issac's next chapter is filled with ambition and practicality. He plans to balance continuing his work at Walmart with pursuing a degree in Business Administration at a four-year college.
Reflecting on his time at Central Heights, Issac finds pinpointing just one memorable experience impossible. Instead, he treasures the countless moments spent with friends inside and outside school.

This group at New Horizon Ranch is focusing on concepts related to leadership, with today's topic on responsibility. Each person in this activity had a responsibility as either a brain (could only think/speak) or a hand (could only act as directed), but they had to act as one. In the words of one student, "not all solutions to a problem may be easy; sometimes the best solution may be more challenging."
