Centennial High School had reason to beam with pride this December as three of its own cheerleaders represented the Hawks on a national stage. Demetria Gonzalez, Lorena Zamora, and Joaquin Zamora were selected as All American Cheerleaders for 2025 and traveled to Honolulu, Hawaii, to perform in the Pearl Harbor Day Parade on December 7.
The students joined cheerleaders from across the country to honor veterans, commemorate history, and celebrate the spirit of unity that defines the event. Coach Sabrina Zamora accompanied the group, offering guidance and support throughout the unforgettable experience.
This year, Centennial had a total of eight All American Cheerleaders selected, a remarkable accomplishment for the program. While only three were able to attend the parade, the entire Centennial community celebrates their achievement and the dedication it represents.
Congratulations to our standout athletes for carrying the Hawk spirit all the way to Hawaii!
