As a Junior who is currently in Sussex central high school I would say I would like Sussex central based on the education system, the education system holds good learning and well subjects you can learn from. Changes I would like is from students and from staff, Students mess around and say racist comments. I want the staff to do something about this.

Sussex central is a great school to attend regarding academics and school spirit. Love going to the sporting events. I participate in IB program to help further my education; not all Delaware schools offer it like SCHS. They can use some help with the administration staff and teachers sometimes it's a struggle getting the help you need to be successful in you classes.

Some of the best things about Sussex Central High School are that the staff members are very friendly with the students and they do a good job keeping kids on track and out of trouble. One thing I would change about the school is that there needs to be more teachers because of the amount of students.

The best and the brightest are pushed with rigorous course offerings within the IB program and more Advanced Placement courses offered than any other school within the county. Struggling learners are af...

My school is outstanding in the way that the teachers and staff try their hardest to educate the future of our society. The only problem I have is that some policies are too strict and learning isn't as rigorous as I need. I have been accepted into the IB Program this year that they have been runnin...
