📅 A full slate of Viking action is on deck this week!

From middle school volleyball battles at Marmaton Valley, Burlington, and Jayhawk Linn to Friday night lights in Pleasanton, there is no shortage of blue and gold pride. Our high school volleyball squad takes the home court Tuesday, cross country runs at Lyndon Thursday, and the gridiron keeps rolling with JV, MS, and varsity matchups.

PTA meets Wednesday at 5:30 followed by the board meeting at 7:00, and our fifth graders head out on a Starbase adventure Friday.

🏐🏃‍♂️🏈 Whatever your favorite sport or activity, there’s something for everyone. Come out, cheer loud, and let’s make it another unforgettable week at Central Heights!

What a way to launch the fall season! This afternoon our school came together for a pep rally that had the gym rocking. Students from every fall activity were introduced and celebrated while our cheer, dance, and band kept the crowd moving and shouting. The highlight had to be the obstacle games with staff taking on the seniors… and yes, the staff claimed bragging rights this time around. The energy, the laughter, and the school pride set the stage for an unforgettable season ahead. A huge shoutout to our high school StuCo for planning such a spirited event and to everyone who brought the noise. Central Heights is ready. Let’s go Vikings… yell Blue and Gold! 💙💛

📚✨The Middle School's Leader In Me WIG Challenge is On! ✨📚

Right now, the 6th, 7th, and 8th graders are going head-to-head in a friendly (but also fierce) school-wide WIG (Wildly Important Goal) competition to see who can make the most academic growth in both Math and ELA on IXL by the end of the semester! 🔢📖

This week, Mr. Brown brought his Advisory class out to check out our IXL GOAL GETTERS Leaderboard, and there were some surprised faces when they saw that… 🥁 7th Grade is currently in the lead! 💪💙

👏 A huge shoutout to Emery Hughes, our first IXL BINGO board winner! She's been working hard and has earned herself a free tasty treat from Ottawa's Dairy Queen. Way to lead the way, Emery! 🍪🏆

Let’s keep the momentum going! Which grade will come out on top and earn an elite prize in addition to gaining all of that knowledge? Who else will conquer our scholarly BINGO board challenge? Keep logging those IXL minutes and showing that leadership through learning! 💼📈 Huge shoutout to Ms. Meyer and Mrs. Horstick for all of their hard work on this!

Due to current field conditions making Jayhawk Linn's field temporarily unsafe for play, this week’s away football game will be moved to Fort Scott High School with a 7:00 PM start time. Player safety is the top priority in making this decision. We appreciate your understanding and continued support of our team, and we look forward to seeing everyone in Fort Scott.
