GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

It has been an amazing experience. They have helped me through so many obstacles and have guided me through high school.

i love the teachers. although we go to school everyday and have to find outfits to wear every single day. I think it's only fair that we have a say in what clothes we get to wear and buy for school. if ripped jeans are distracting then we shouldn't be able to wear shorts, that are showing more skin. ripped jeans don't have to be ripped all the way up to our hips but they don't make ripped jeans anymore that are golf ball size. I say instead of patriot period we have a longer lunch and get open lunches on certain days, if our grades are up. that will push students to get better grades if they want to go home or go out for lunch.

I really enjoy how small the classes are just because at my old school it was so big and you didn't always know everyone. The teachers are really helpful in preparing us for college, before junior year I had no idea how important college can be for your future. The only thing I didn't like about Adams Central was how close minded the students were. Coming from my old school the population was very diverse, then I came here and the students were never exposed to different cultures.

Adams Central provided my children with an excellent education and plenty of opportunities to explore their potential. Students for the most part care about their education and are committed to doing their best. Teachers work hard and care about their students, extremely professional. What more can...
