Why I think Central high-school is just average is because of the guidance for classes. I was not informed to take college classes until senior year. I felt that I had no guidance in my freshman and sophomore years. This left me confused about what I should do. I felt that the diversity of Central was lacking. Most of the teachers and students were white and had the same ideas about the world.
