I just started my junior year and everyone has made me feel welcome. It's an environment full of diversity so you never feel like you don't belong. There's so many academic and social opportunities within the school program too.

I have been fairly active in my school and I can see the great parts of the school like the great student body and teachers who seem to actually care for the students. There are a good amount of clubs and things to get involved with but some things I would like to see changed are the food and classes. The food has seemed to lower in quality and quantity since freshman year and some classes I was hoping to take were not offered there.
3/5/2024
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.

My son is a sophomore at West campus. He has had nothing but amazing instructors. Each teacher has been responsive to me when I have a concern or question. They are incredibly helpful and have gone above and beyond in helping my son. Of course there are things I would like to see changed in the over...

I go to Central High School (West Campus) and it's an average school. The teachers are good. They care and make sure students get the knowledge they need, and also it's not such a large school so there's more attention towards the student. The students themselves can have a "bad image".. but there a...
