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.

I enjoyed every minute of my education during my 4+ years enrolled at Central High School. The principals and faculty are open and welcoming, and they are always there to help students succeed. Everyone at Central High School and in the community are like a close knit family that love and protect each other.

The teachers try to push us and teach us everything that they can so that we can be successful. They want us to have an easier college experience.
I am currently attending this school and all that matters is sports and ffa if you aren't in any of those activities, they don't really care. Academics is suppose to be #1 and it's not. I hate this school it's all drama and heartache. I'm so very glad I'm a senior now.
