This school is very caring and always works with its students to assure our success. The teachers are amazing and I've made a close bond with each one of them. The principal is always here for us and she is always busy with making this school better and better for us students. I personally am glad that I get to be a student here at this school.

If you stand out you don't fit in and people do not get to express them selves as much as they would like due to getting made fun of. I did make friends at school though. It was somewhat easy to find people you get along with but on the other hand you do not get to express yourself as much as you would like.

I love Surry Centeal. While being there you really feel like a family. Everyone knows everyone and people will have your back when things are bad. The sporting events are one of my favorite thing about SC.
