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.
The Test Score Rating reflects annual state test results for this school compared with scores statewide.

The best part of my high school experience so far is definately my experience with choir and theater. Our theater program has many talented students who work hard in every aspect of high school. Some things that could be improved are the science classes.

Central high school is a very integrated school, where everyone knows everyone. It is a very tight knit community, and there is a large sense of family at Central. The teachers really care about their students, not just in the classroom, but outside of it as well. They want to make sure that you succeed in life, not just academically but personally as well. I loved my time at Central.

Girls track and cross country, football, wrestling, and basketball all do pretty well. As with all the ot...

Teachers that don't care about their students and bus drivers that drive like their in their own personal bus race, and w...
