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.

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 would like to see the school food improved, as well as the math teachers given a better curriculum, and the staff to actually assist with student needs. I also would like the counselors to do more than ask the same questions when a student is having a problem, and for the college staff to find more opportunities for involvement with students.

I had a pretty good time at this school for the three years I was here. I felt supported by students and staff and I never felt unsafe. Our performing arts programs are astounding. Our choir and band programs are full of incredibly talented people and lead are lead by two of the hardest working men I know. Our drama department has grown so much since covid and I am proud to have been a part of it and made wonderful art with my friends. Teachers here are very supportive, and if you or your child find someone who is unhelpful there is definitely someone who is willing to help.

Teacher morale is a huge problem at the school. my students have emailed teachers and tried to meet with them when they had questions or issues or concerns. Teachers are very difficult to get a hold of, they don’t reply to emails from students, and they rarely reply to emails from parents. We’ve had...

Century is a good school aside from its principal, Ms Guise. I will say that is the only reason I won't recommend Century. Regardless of Century being a good school, I can't, in good conscience, recommend it with Martha Guise being a part of the administration.
