GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

I enjoyed the staff. The teachers were intentional with their students and cared about their well-being. However, there is a lack of academic opportunities, limiting a student's success in the future.

I'm now a senior at Central High School and my experience there was great. Central may not be at the top of everyone's list to go to but you'll learn and have fun the same way as from ant other school.
