Thank you to Miss Centroid 2025, Ruby Burks, who served as the co-host, as well as our former Miss Centroids who served as judges, Miss Centroid 2010, Deonica Simmons; Miss Centroid 2021, Remy Thornton; and Miss Centroid 2020, Olivia Hay Newsome.
The Miss Centroid pageant is a fundraiser for the Student Government Association. The money raised will enable SGA to fund the third and fourth nine-weeks academic celebrations, as well as support other end-of-the-year events.
Thank you to SGA student pageant coordinator Bailee Hamilton who volunteered almost 30 hours working on pageant preparations. Thank you, also, to the SGA members who set up, worked the pageant and cleaned up, A’maiya Jackson, Re’Niyah Gibbs, Destini Kelly, Tatum Larrabee, and Makayla Murray.
It was a great night, and we are so proud of all of our young ladies who were part of a 37-year tradition at Central High School. Pictures courtesy of Bill Miller photography.
