My overall experience at Cenaturi Highschool has been a very good experience. It's super nice to be around a community of people that are very supportive and always try to help you achieve your full potential and help you in any way possible that they can. I have also had some amazing friendships here that have always supported me in anything and everything. But the teachers always try to help you if you are struggling on a certain topic of subject. This school always makes me feel very safe because they have a cop that is always here monitoring the school and they make sure they follow certain precautions to make sure every single one of us is safe.

Centauri High School is safe school that provides an average learning environment. On a day to day basis, the people are friendly and students always feel safe. However, there lacks a sense of dedication and engagement between the teachers, staff, parents, and even some students. Very few students participate in any art, music or drama programs, causing our school to lack character and a sense of pride.

The involvement and their eagerness to help each kid that wants to learn is really motivating and really helps all of us want to be better. The worst part of my experience here is when a girl passed out from taking something and the school went completely on guard and the school suddenly felt like an unsafe environment. I hope that that feeling changes but being in the valley, I don't think there's much to do to change.

Rated 7th in Colorado by having the greatest difference between the "expected" ACT scores and the ACT scores they get (data by Aspen Foundation/Roaring Fork Asst. Supt.).

Centauri is a great high school and does more with less than any high school around. Look at the scores it receives despite having the demographics it has. Proof is in the data. Principal is awesome.
