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.

Centennial highschool is a fairly new highschool. That has its ups and downs. I would say the school over all gives good recourses and I don't find it hard with grades. The thing about centennial is it lacks school culture and involvement. There isn't a sense of unity between students and that can be because the school is newer, that they might be trying to build that culture. Sports are okay.

I enjoyed the overall experience of being a Hawk at Centennial. The gathering of different organizations was always special, and applauding each other was a task the faculty and staff always strived for.

It was super fun, great education, and great teachers. I had people that helped me through so much here and people that always had my back.

I give this school the worst possible rating. If you pick your child up, you won't leave for a few hours because of the traffic.
