At the beginning of our school year 1959, the Superintendent of Carroll county Schools cut the ribbon as he was assisted and backed by County Board members, speakers, Central High Principal and friends.
This was a great moment filled with thrills and chills. We thrilled at the prospect of beginning school in our huge beautiful, new building and we chilled at the problem of amalgamating students from five areas.
The challenge had become a reality and today students, faculty, and parents march forth to a new future. The question was shall we success or shall we fail.
One Community, One Family, One Pride
The mission of Central High School is to provide all students with educational opportunities through a challenging curriculum which meets the needs of a diverse school community.
On the city's southern border
Reared against the sky
Proudly stands our Alma Mater
Dear old Central High.
Forward ever be our watchword
Conquer and prevail
Hail to thee our Alma Mater Central High, all hail!
