Congratulations to each of them for qualifying and making it to Nationals! Congratulations to Kobie Kosek who came home with a 2nd place red ribbon. Kobie competed in the 9-10th grade division of Interactive Bulletin Board. In order to receive a red ribbon, she had to score a 94-97 out of 100 on her rubric, which was scored by a panel of judges. We are really proud of her and all of the members for the way they represented Centennial. Thank you to the school board and administration for allowing them to attend this wonderful conference!
