its a poor catholic school that has no funding for anything besides their football and basketball team. It's not for you if you don't like either of those, if you do though, check it out. make sure to get a voucher though, It's not worth the actual tuition.

Lima Central Catholic has very invested, caring, and passionate teachers. The administration clearly understands that our school needs to have a culture that calls students to serve God by becoming the best version of themselves, in addition to being the best athletes and students they can be.

In 2010 only 36% of students passed AP exams leaving a 64% failure rate with no possibility of obtaining college credit.
