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.
The Test Score Rating reflects annual state test results for this school compared with scores statewide.

The dress code has some issues. If two girls were wearing shorts that were too short, for example, one would be sent home to change but the other wouldn't. I understand there needs to be some rules, but students should be treated equally and the rules shouldn't be as strict.

I had a great experience here and I'm glad I was able to stay at Central. If you keep your grades up, are involved in sports/activities, you will be able to succeed and do very well.
