Central High School works pretty well with what they're given, there are a lot more oppurtunities that I wish were given to us. It does allow for students to advocate for themselves and gives plenty of paths for people to take.

The building has expanded over the past few years providing better opportunities for athletics and more diverse class choices.

I enjoyed my overall high school experience. I made many friends and made many connections to all of my teachers. Every teacher truly cared about their students and are willing to do anything for them. I will say administration could have been better though with not being very flexible with what students were able to do for school such as dances, etc. I will always remember my high school years and all the good memories that came from wonderful teachers and friends along the way.
