Overall Central High School is an amazing school. I started off incredibly shy and refused to talk to anyone, however because of the Ag department I am now actively involved, can hold conversations and a chapter officer vice president.

Since I couldn't be all the 4 years at that schools, I didn't lived the whole experience, but regardles of that, I did enjoyed and learned quite a lot (mostly in math and financial decicions, thanks Mr. McFadden).

I would say that Central High School was overall a good high school that provided opportunities and encouragement to those who would take advantage of them. The teachers and staff overall were doing what they could to help students improve and succeed, but often standards were lower than what might be hoped to prepare students to go to college.

The students themselves can have a "bad image".. but there a...
