Congratulations to Centennial Performing Artist of the Month Therese Kelley! Mrs. Garrigan says Therese is one of Centennial's youngest Performance Dance students and "is a positive contributor to the collaborative process through creating and teaching choreography. She is positive, humble, and always hard-working. She recently volunteered to create a tap number for our school musical, SpongeBob SquarePants. Therese choreographed a fantastic piece and spent her personal time after school teaching it to our cast members. This was her first time creating and teaching a musical theater number, but you would never know it!  She was so prepared, leading the actors with grace, kindness, and enthusiasm. Therese exemplifies the qualities of a gifted artist and Coyote Pride. We are so fortunate to have her in the dance program! 

Imaan Agha is Centennial's Visual Artist of the Month! Mrs. Lund says she is a quiet individual who has a fierce determination. Imaan developed a photography portfolio and continues to cultivate her own creative style. Within her is a brilliant individual who seeks to capture the events of our culture through a lens..
