JOSTENS POP-UP SHOP - Jostens thrilled to invite you to a special Pop-Up Shop at Catholic Central High School!

This is your chance to find the perfect class ring and letter jacket—symbols of your high school journey and school pride. Make your ring truly yours with bold stones, hundreds of design-a-sides, and custom engraving that showcases your story. Plus, personalize your letter jacket with sport and activity patches, school colors and more. Don’t miss your chance to celebrate these proud Cougar traditions—we can’t wait to see you there!

Once it's ready, send your design to Ms. Malson at nicollemalson@grcatholiccentral.org. If you need assistance with design or don’t know how to get started, feel free to ask Ms. Malson for help!

If you have any questions, please contact your counselor or Ms.Tejeda.

VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITY - Enjoy working with kids? And would you also enjoy a volunteer activity that involves running? San Juan Diego Academy is looking for volunteers to help coach the Total Trek Quest program this Spring at the school. TTQ is a program for 3rd to 5th grade boys that teaches them to make positive life choices through running, culminating in a competitive 5K at the end of the practices. Practices run from 3:40 to 5:10 p.m., beginning March 11 and ending on May 15. (There are no practices during Spring break.) All you would need to do is run with the boys and encourage them to keep moving toward their goal. Running times range from 20 minutes to 40 minutes. There will be trained coaches present who will be responsible for actually running practices. Coaches may be male or female, but must be at least 16 years old. If you are interested, or might have questions, please contact Tom Sarb at tpsarb@gmail.com. Thank you.
