Congratulations to our Science Olympiad Team

Congratulations to the Science Olympiad team who took 3rd place out of 20 teams at the state competition this past Saturday. This is the highest finish any Central team has accomplished in the history of Glencoe. Of the 23 events, team members placed in the top 5 in 9 of those events. Special recognition goes to the state champions in experimental design: Cassie, Li, Will C, and Nathan Z.

Congrats to the Science Olympiad Team

Congratulations to the Central Science Olympiad team for their 4th place finish in the regional competition.  Olympians medaled in 11 of 23 events. This qualifies the team for the state competition at the University of Illinois on April 22nd.  Their coach, Mr. Brian Sitz states, “They prepared very well and have a better appreciation for how hard they have to work to see the results that they are looking for.  I think they will be even more driven over the next month and a half to modify, redesign, and study to achieve some new goals that we will establish.” Thank you to our coaches and families for supporting our young scientists. Join us in wishing the team well in April. View more photos here.

Chess Club Takes First Place


Congratulations to the Central School Chess Club for taking first place in the Kumbaya Chess Tournament. We’d like to extend a special thank you to Mr. Pituc for supporting this opportunity and helping our students to shine.

Text-A-Tip

  We are pleased to share that our students are able to use text messaging to reach out for help for themselves or friends at any time of day or night. Text-a-Tip allows students to find anonymous, immediate help if they are struggling with drug or alcohol abuse, depression, difficult family situations, bullying, or any of the many challenges they face today. Text-A-Tip is staffed with local counselors provided by LEAD (Linking Efforts Against Drugs), a non-profit organization focused on promoting healthy family relationships and preventing alcohol and drug use and other risky behaviors by youth.
