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.

I love Central School, and would recommend it. Even though it might be one of the smaller schools, that doesn't stop it from being an amazing one. The teachers are excellent, and have high training, and an amazing style. They taught me a lot, and prepared me for what was to come. If you are picking a accessible, small, nice school in Westchester, I recommend Central School. I recommend more sports, but they incorporate it well into their curriculum during PE.

The best community environment where the students are excited to learn and be part of the larger school family! Teachers are passionate and there are many opportunities for parents to get involved too. There’s no place like Central!

Wonderful school with a nurturing environment and a dedicated team. Set in lots of green open space, with woodland classroom and gardens. The teachers go above and beyond to care for their kids. Our children have been so happy here.
