Freshman Seminar and LINKS
Link Crew is a program that trains next year's seniors to be positive role models for incoming freshmen. Freshmen get to know their Link Leader personally through a series of carefully planned and practiced activities on freshmen Orientation Day in August. Then the Link Leaders are responsible for inviting the freshmen into school activities and warning them away from behaviors that lead to failure in school and in life. The Link Leaders intervene in disciplinary matters affecting their crew and help arrange tutoring for them when necessary. In short, the Link Leaders are role models assisting freshmen throughout their first year at Centaurus to create a school culture of dignity, respect, and success
