Grandparents Day
Thank you to our Grandparents for your legacy of love, wisdom, and sacrifice.
Each year, the Central Catholic Community invites the grandparents of freshmen to attend a very special afternoon with their grandchildren.
Grandparents are invited to enjoy lunch at the school and share in the spirit and talents of our students. Tours are available after the luncheon for those interested in seeing their grandchildren's school.
For more information, please contact Mrs. Jennifer Plouffe, Associate Director of Advancement, jplouffe@dienmayhikaru.com, 978-682-0260 ext. 638.

Make a Gift in Honor of Your Grandchild
We invite you to consider making a financial, philanthropic gift to Central Catholic in honor of your grandchild or grandchildren so that CCHS can continue to pass on its blessings to all grandkids - yours, ours, and the generations to come.
Your grandchild or grandchildren will receive a special message letting them know of your thoughtful gift made in their honor. The nature and size of the gift will not be included in the message.
