El Diablo wins highest ranking possible

Congratulations to the 2013-2014 yearbook staff! 

For the first time in Central’s history, El Diablo Yearbook received an “ALL-AMERICAN” ranking (the highest ranking possible) from National Scholastic Press Association with Five out of Five Marks of Distinction in Concept, Coverage, Design, Writing & Editing, and Photography.   This puts El Diablo in some very elite company.  Only 1.2 percent of student publications in the United States earned the honor or All-American this year. 

 This is truly a remarkable achievement and a testament to a huge amount of hard work, study, design, revision, and cooperation.  

Everyone on El Diablo staff should be very, very proud of this award.  Special congratulations to Editors-in-Chief Sophia Glomb and Vicky Gomez, Design Manager Iman Ajaz, Managing Editor Jaya Sharma, Graphic Designers Mayank Mehta and Francesca Chiappetta, copy editor Julia Donnelly, writers Mary Kate Foley and Katie Murphy, designers Suraj Marwaha, Areeba Javed, Samantha Strausser, Karolina Bryjak, Mary Kate Pyle, Mary Kate McCarthy, and Rachel Thompson


Congratulations also to the teachers responsible for guiding this fine group of students.  The Adviser is English teacher Ms. Erin Palmer and Assistant Adviser is English teacher Mr. Hasham Bhatti. You can contact Erin here and Sham here.
