			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>We are in need of your help immediately. Centreville High School <strong>will not get</strong> any renovations via our ranking in Fairfax County Public Schools for many years.  Our theater which is used by our students, teachers, administrators, and community desperately needs an audio/visual uplift.  We have a bid that includes an equalizer, speakers, and microphones, etc. in excess of  $5000.  Drama club, PTSA, and Mr. Campbell have all contributed to this amount; however, we are still in need of more. Please consider donating to this wonderful cause because we are extremely outdated and it would be a significant contribution for the entire community.  Please make checks payable to CVHS, with THEATER in the memo section. Your donation, in any amount, will go a long way to help this significant renovation. Send or drop-off your checks in the CVHS main office.</p>
<p>Thank You,<br />
Cathy Moraco<br />
PTSA President</p>
