Grandparents Day
Thank you to our Grandparents for your legacy of love, wisdom, and sacrifice. We have the pleasure of witnessing these attributes in your grandchildren, and these values are what make Central Catholic High School so special.
Each year, the Central Catholic Community invites the grandparents of freshmen to attend a very special afternoon with their grandchildren.
Class of 2027: Wed., Oct. 11, 2023
Grandparents are invited to enjoy lunch at the school and share in the spirit and talents of our students. Tours are available after the luncheon for those interested in seeing their grandchildren's school.
