Mr. Theobald and Mr. Cumpston review the updates at the high school such as new lighting, electrical, and HVAC, if the bond would pass.
Opportunities gained by the bond passing could include hosting Southern Nebraska Conference and district events, along with more athletic tournaments, as we are centrally located in our Conference.

💜 🏀 Boys SNC Basketball 🏀 💜 📍 Centennial High School ⏰ 7:00pm 🗓️ February 6 Just a reminder that NO PASSES will be accepted for SNC basketball games.
Here is the link for the game:

The cost is $10 per day for streaming but you will have access to all games today.
We currently have 3 basketball courts; none of them are the full 94 feet long. They are each in their own gym “box,” so we have 3 gym “boxes”. The gym that would be built would be a larger “box” so that it would hold two full-size cross courts (94 feet long) that could be used with the bleachers pulled back. Building 2 courts in one gym “box” is more efficient than building 2 new gym “boxes”.
A curtain will be able to be dropped down to allow for separate practice courts or tournament game courts. There is also out of bound space between these two cross courts, so the curtain wouldn’t be the out of bounds as you may have seen in some gyms. The current middle school gym is 6,790 sf and the downtown gym is 6,262 sf. The two of them would be 13,052 sf together.
The proposed new gym would have 13,700 sf of usable floor space. Having two gyms would allow for more room for concerts/graduation/wrestling tournaments/other events. All JV games and high school practices would be held at the high school, the potential to host basketball and volley ball tournaments. The community would be able to host youth sports, with three courts under one roof.
Mr. Cumpston, Mrs. Hofferber, Mr. Schwarz, and Mr. Wusk discuss what their experiences are working in two or three buildings, and furnishing those additional classrooms/shops. They also discuss what additional opportunities they could give Fillmore Central students if the bond would pass.
