This year we are celebrating 30 full years of building and creating a well-established string orchestra program! The Central High School Orchestra has graduated over 500 students since being founded by Patricia McCall. The orchestra is currently under the direction of her former student and mentee, Jaris Tobler. 

This showcase honors her legacy here at Central High School and allows the community to see her many years of dedication and commitment to her students and community. Her favorite pieces over the years and memorable moments will be revisited as a tribute to her greatness.
