Centennial High School Reviews
Rating 3.33 out of 5 230 reviews
Great staff and administration, very interpersonal relations, and care of students. Most teachers care about students more than the job requires and take that extra step to ensure they succeed. On the contrary, there were lots of fights, and in my Junior year, there were some threats of violence against the school. With suitable security measures with weapon detectors and dedicated security staff, Champaign Police Department has been seen around the area frequently, campus feels safe overall.
I liked that Centennial High School was diverse. There were so many people with different backgrounds. There were many classes, specifically AP's classes, that they offered. I appreciate that Centennial also had many sports teams and there was a lot of school spirit when it came to sports. I am glad to have gone to a high school like Centennial.
My experience at Centennial HIgh School was average. I made many friends and kept busy with sports and extra curricular activities. However, many of the classes I took were not very engaging. Many students were on their cell phones and some of the teachers came into class late, eating as they taught and seemed to be unprepared. I love to be challenged, so I just wish the classes were more impactful. Now that I am in college, it would have also been nice to have classes offered that actually teach students about finances, budgeting, investing, etc.. I feel that it would better prepare students for the next step after high school.
