4/6/2025
I've gone to Decatur Central Highschool for all 4 years of highschool and the staff truly care about the students. My best experience is the way teachers aren't just there to teach you math or science but are there to help when you have other problems. The worst parts are locking all of the bathrooms except the one by the lunch room during the hour and thirty min lunch block, and then not monitoring the bathrooms. I would like to see a change in the way the bathrooms work and a change it the variety of food served.

They care about students but not a lot except for specific teachers that care more, there's been scandals and rumors plenty of fights but overall if you send your kid here they'll have an experience.

I have had 3 children go through this school. I really like the small community set up. I wish the communities were defined a little more and had stronger personalities but still they help keep kids from falling through the cracks. More students are graduating every year. I also LOVE that more advan...
