I have had a great experience with Central Dauphin High School. They have prepared me for my future. There are many clubs and activities that you can take part in. I also had a great experience with the athletic department and the athletic trainers. CD has many classes to help you find your interests for your future, which puts them apart from other schools.

Overall the school is fine. There are a large amount of classes you can pick from and there are a lot of higher level courses. Chs is a good opportunity for students that use it. Other then that, majority of teachers are helpful and friendly and the lunch is alright.

Attending Central Dauphin as a black girl has its challenges. I see there is a sense of community in the school, but only around and for mainly white or rich people. There are a lot of issues of race here, and I have faced many incidents of racism. I would like to see the administration show less tolerance for discrimination and racism present on campus.

I had many highs and lows throughout my years here. All in all, it was a pretty average experience. The school has changed in size, staff, demographics, test scores, and policies over the years, but it’s still a middle of the road institution. The bad teachers don’t represent the good, and vice vers...

I am a former student and the teachers are caring, there is diversity in student backgrounds (limited at first, but growing), as well as in thought. I am now a Registered Nurse with my BSN and I am looking into my masters program. My family has been attending this district for two generations now an...
