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 started centerline preparatory academy in my sophomore year and been here since my senior year. this school overall I would rate it a solid 3.8 out of 5. This school has a few good opportunities and it prepares you for starting college. It has an early middle college program that I attended my 11th grade year and the teachers came from Wayne county community college. I like this school and all the clubs and activities that come with it.
