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 had an amazing experience at centennial high school. I was a part of the IB program and met some of the smartest peers I had through out my academic career. The IB teachers are phenomenal and truly care about your learning.

My Centennial High School experience has influenced who I am as a person. I transferred during my Junior year from Arlington High School in Riverside. After I transferred to Centennial, I learned more about who I was as a person. For this, I am thankful for my teachers, coaches, and peers. When I transferred, I didn't know many people and this really humbled me. Being at this school has helped me find my place in society and the type of person I am.

What drew me to Centennial High School is that it was the only school in the district that offered the IB program. I was in it for the first 2 years and now as a junior, I'm completing the half program. The worst parts of Centennial aren't many. The only bad thing I could say is that I don't feel exactly college-ready, but I still have a while to go.

My child is on a 504 plan and the attendance lady Leslie Oregel has bullied her repeatedly, bullied me repeatedly, and created multiple barriers for my daughter to get the care she needs. She has even put my child’s safety in serious risk on one occasion. Don’t bring your children here!

I previously attended this school (2018-2022). I'm not sure why some of these reviews talk about dress codes or gangs, when I was attending I didn't see any gangs or unruly displays. Everyone at the school seems to be friendly and I never had any issues with other classmates. There's a lot of divers...
