My experience with Central high school has been nonetheless amazing ,my very first year was Covid year so it was very different because of the fact I couldn't go to actual school. My high school experience didn't start until 10th grade year, since then I have excelled in my academics as well as my sports and I couldn't ask to attend a better school than Central high school. Recently we just found out that our graduation rate in 2023 was 96% & we're definitely going to keep going !
