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 High School is a well funded school and always adding new things to the campus. They set students up well for college using an array of optional Dual Enrollment and AP classes. They have a good sports program that is easy for new people to join and have fun.

My time at Centennial High School was the best. I originally attended Shadow Ridge High School and didn't really feel like i belonged especially on the softball team. I loved the coaches there and teammates but transferring to Centennial was the best thing that happened my high school years. I loved all of it and especially how I felt being there.

I have appreciated the desire a majority of the staff have to see us succeed and I do believe I was welcomed into the school atmosphere. What I would like to see changed would be more seating options for lunch, slightly higher quality food, and a better class sign-up system. A few times, I wanted to take a class but there were too few people who signed up for it, so it was canceled. Other than that, I believe Centennial High School has been a wonderful experience for me and my classmates.

This school buses kids in from Mojave. It’s a very hushed situation. They don’t have enough buses for zoned kids because of it. They need more police presence as well and have gangs targeting white kids. The school is over capacity as well. Classes have too many kids and then unruly kids so educatio...

We gave up on this school. The counselor stood us up for appointments and the principal was totally disinterested in my child. My son received no attention and no assistance.
