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.

I love being a student at Central High School, the staff take great care of the students,and have a high level of respect for all of us. I think every faculty member does their best to make our school a fun, educational, and safe experience. The administration is very caring, and involved in every event from musical arts, to sporting events.

They don't care when someone is getting bullied. The person getting bullied gets in trouble over the other people who are actually bullying them.
