I really enjoy this school iv been here for 4yrs and I never want to go back to homeschooling. Iv met my best friends at central and have grown spiritually and academically all 4yrs iv been at CBS.

Overall, very good. Interest in the students is very high. Not all students get along with all teachers. Most teachers make their classes interesting, from what my children say. Teachers are available to help students who are struggling or just don't understand something.

Because the classes are small, the teachers know the students well and are usually aware of bullying and fighting. I know bullying has occurred and has been addressed. No one is allowed in the school unless they sign in. I suppose someone could enter one of the buildings without going by the office, but there are security cameras with the images being streamed to the front desk at all times. There is no school nurse, but a student may get permission to leave medication with the secretary and take something if needed. I feel it is safe but in this day and age, I don't think any school is free from the possibility of someone trying to harm others.
