GreatSchools Rating
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.

Its been the best school it can be given the funding and resources it receives from the state. The teachers are very nice but there's not that many of them, and because of that there are a lot of foreign and virtual teachers. Overall it is good but can be great given the opportunity.

The best part about my experience at Central High School are the friends and relationships I have developed over the 4 years that I have been here. The worst part is that the district underpays our teachers, so we have had a lot of turn-over in our staff which I feel has had a negative impact on my learning experience with the adjustments that come with that.
