Madison Central High school is very big in diversity, you're always able to make friends and find somebody you have something in common with. Central has several sports and clubs you could be a part of and they are very helpful with your schedule so you can do more than one activity if you want! The teachers there are extremely encouraging and supportive. You can go up to any of them and they would love to talk to you about anything. You're able to have a very close relationship with the teachers at Madison Central. The only thing I would change is to have a longer lunch and for the school to put as focus on the arts as they do the sports and core classes like math and english.
After attending MCHS for a total of 4 years, this year being my last as part of the graduating class of 2020, I’ve been able to see the pros and cons that come with the school’s environment.
MCHS has a welcoming environment, dedicated staff, and a very open relationship with students. Diversity is rich, meaning anybody and everybody from all different types of schools are brought together to socialize and interact.
The staff members are quick to work and function as well as ensure that a student feels welcome, safe, and secure in their learning environment. Teachers sit down with students and are willing to give students extra time to learn if needed and are very expressive about listening to students if they’re to ever vocalize their concerns.
Madison Central has had its negative moments but, overall, the school has a welcoming community of students and teachers alike.

I was a student at Madison Central High School for the past four years. The school has around 2,000 students and the building is smaller than it should be. Personally, I think that the school district needs another school to further improve the high school experience for each individual student in the Madison County School system. At Madison Central, there is a program for highly accomplished students called the Advanced Scholars Academy. Through this program students can be immersed into a rigorous education. Madison Central has excellent teachers in the math department, but average teachers across other departments.
