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.

Centennial High School is known to be very diverse, yet the staff isn't as diverse. There is a lot of racism within administration that isn't discussed and plenty retaliation towards students they don't like because of their color. Overall, the school does have good academics and sports.

Honestly strong higher level classes, specifically the teachers. Gen Ed classes were subpar while I was in them during the beginning years of High School. Classes were chaotic and less focused on trying to push ones self to be better and stronger in the academic field. The students/peers were not helping either, with their immaturity and lack of care during classtime. I don't blame the school at all, its just naturally that some aren't that passionate in higher education and that wanes on the motivation of the teachers with those uninspired students.

Overall, the administration works hard to provide resources for students although their efforts can fall short sometimes. But they never give up, it's just that they always seem to be just a couple years behind in their outreach programs.

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...
