Niche Reviews
8/12/2025
The best part of my school is having good teachers that actually like teaching and make class fun. Something I would like to see change is the amount of people at the school or getting a bigger school there are too many people that classes don't have enough tables so it is really crowded
7/15/2025
Academically, Central High offered strong core classes and great opportunities like dual enrollment. Some classes were more engaging than others, but I feel prepared for college. There were ups and downs, but overall I had a strong friend group and enjoyed things like pep rallies and senior events.
4/10/2025
My school does a lot to try and build school spirit. There are many events over the year designed to draw students and out and get them excited about school.
GreatSchools Reviews
7/3/2025
My child was top of their class and constantly underrepresented and mistreated without cause. Racism runs rampant in the school and any POC kid would be unsafe emotionally and mentally especially if they can’t find community.
3/9/2010
Central High is an EXCELLENT school, with an amazing principal who loves and cares for all children.
