Central Catholic High School Reviews
I think if there were one thing I would be looking to change, it would be providing more money towards the tech department. The ACADEMIC side of the classical sciences such as biology, chemistry, and physics have no shortage of funding, but CCHS does lack some skill development in more specific engineering and computer science fields. There are a lot of "CS Basics" classes and "Engineering 101" classes, but there aren't enough resources to develop an academic track for students looking to pursue STEM fields outside the classic sciences at CCHS.
I think with a little extra funding and interest, the school would have no problem creating these resources for students interested in STEM,
