the high school is not very good. Although there are some good staff members a majority of them do not care for their job. Students are treated as degenerates and given no respect. The clubs are nice and created a good community experience but otherwise it is very difficult to find a sense of community. There is constant stealing and fighting between students. I would like to see safety procautions be improved and better staff members who have a passion for what they do.

I've been going to Joliet Central High School since my sophomore year. Changing school was a hard thing to do but Joliet Central and it's community has never made me feel left out or like I didn't belong. I was a little behind in school but my teachers made sure I caught up and excelled in all my studies. Joliet Central was an educational journey that shaped my future success.
