The students and faculty here at Central have decided to commit to various goals in the upcoming year. Most of our school population’s resolves are common, such as getting higher grades, having fun, and being a more outgoing individual. On the flip side, some students decided to commit to something different this year, like dressing a certain way, or quitting strange habits such as dancing in public.
