Overall, my high school experience has been very good! This has been mostly because of the amazing teachers at Centennial. They exceed the expectation set on them by relating to their students rather than just teaching them. I have not met a student who has not felt connected to at least one of their teachers. Through sharing stories of their personal lives or sharing their troubles both now and in the past, the teachers at Centennial are able to capture their students attention and make them feel supported and educated. As well as being amazing educators, the teachers at Centennial are always there when I need someone to talk to. I feel comfortable sharing with them, and they always give me advice. When something is going wrong in my life, I know there is always a teacher there with time to listen. Along with the fantastic teachers, Centennial has many after school activities to offer that make me excited to go to school in the morning. Overall, I give Centennial a thumbs up!
Centennial High School offers an immense amount of courses, for any student's interests, learning ability, and selection of rigor. The staff is extremely kind and helpful and always has a big smile on their faces, ready to make each student's day better! Although the intense academics can become a lot, it is a wonderful school and a very close-knit and spirited community!
Centennial High School is a school known for its academics, which prepares you for your college future. Many teachers will teach you as a college-level student, further preparing you, and overall there are many people you will find and connect to, making new connections and friends. Although focused on academics, it's also a place where you can thrive and make the most of your high school experience. It's always open for more opinions, a diverse place filled with people of different races, personalities, religions, and thoughts. My time at this school was spent with laughter and smiles, and my fair share of tears, but I can look back without regretting anything.
