All of their hard work has paid off for several Central High School students.

Wednesday was the grand opening of their student-run Papa John's Restaurant.

The student managed business operates weekdays during the lunch hour for the staff and the community.

It's a mobile unit that was made possible with the help of Papa John's and the Central High School business class.

Not only will students run it, they also help with the marketing of it all to help the students with a future in business.

"Over my three years in the program I’ve learned the three P's how to market a product and how I can be successful in college being a business major," said Devonte Carson who hopes to attend the University of Kentucky and use what he has learned at Central to work in business.

Glad to see good healthy lunches are being served at the school.
