The John Baylor ACT Prep class that I took helped me increase my ACT score, allowing me to earn an extra $5,000 per year of scholarship money! Without this class that the Central High School Foundation paid for, there is no way college would be affordable for me. I am very grateful to the Central High School Foundation for this opportunity.

Arian Alai, Class of 2020

Thanks to the amazing support from the Central High School Foundation and the Jepsen Family, I have the chance to go to college. This is an opportunity that I would not have had if I had not been awarded the Paul Jepsen scholarship. I am eternally grateful and blessed to be able to continue my education.

Central became a place for me to explore and
create something new for myself. Being a part
of Eagle Broadcasting and The Register gave me both the skills and the courage to do new things
in broadcasting.

Because we do not have a pool at school for the swim team to practice in, the Central High School Foundation pays for access to the downtown YMCA. That way we can have practices in a place to learn properly. We can focus on techniques like how to improve our breathing patterns and swimming strokes.

Central has been very important in finding who I am as a musician. Performing for musicals, the Road Show, and chamber orchestra -- all supported by the Central High School Foundation -- allowed me to continuously improve my skills. The Arts and Library Addition, also funded by the Central High School Foundation, created a musical environment where I had the opportunity to let my creativity run wild and work with people who love music like I do.
