I am an alumnus of this school, class of 2001. I was also a part of the IB program at this school, did cross country, academic decathlon, and mock trial. I absolutely loved it here and would definitely send my two boys here in the future. College was a breeze because of the IB program and now I am a physician at a local hospital. This school and the education I received here set me up for a life of success.
i personally LOVE centennial, you just dont find the drama and worriesthere you find in other schools, its very well maintained and beleive it or not, that helps alot! the teachers are always helping and the school just keeps continuously improving.
My niece went to this school in 2007 and graduted loved the teachers and staff. My son currently goes here and I get the same compassion form the staff. I love this school and my daughter will be attending next year.
My son is a transfer from another IB program to this one. He has always been an A student and exceeded in academics. This year at Centenntial he had a sudden crash down hill. There has been no communication from the school despite my efforts of calling and e-mailing. I finally went to the school to talk to the IB coordinator and another teacher together in person and asked them why they never even let me know before-hand my son's spiral downhill. They simply said that the program is not for everyone and they don't have the time to call every student who's doing poorly. I couldn't believe my ears. This is something completely uncharacteristic of my son and I feel this year would have been different if better intervention. If you want your child to have caring teachers, don't go here.
I am an alum of Centennial High School. I attended the school from 2000-2004. It was, and continues to be, an excellent school for both academics as well as extracurricular activities. I am now a college graduate and am now considering pursuing a career in teaching. I attribute many of my academic successes to the education and experience I had at Centennial.
This high school has a lot to offer for students who are motivated to excel in sports or academics. Staff must be more proactive in communicating with parents. My son is not the best of students; however, he has passed every class when the teacher made contact with the parent in a proactive manner. In fact, he excelled when the communication was regular. Counselors make schedule changes without contacting parents. Soliciting parent input is important.
its a great school for any one who is interested in sports and academic benifits
My daughter is a freshman honor/ap/varsity/scholar student. We've had a couple of situations/concerns that involved the assistant principal, counselor and sports director and each one were handled immediately & professionally. We are very pleased with the teaching staff, counselors, administrators and the girls head volleyball coach. They are all dedicated and caring!! My daughter a freshman, coming into a new district feels safe, happy and proud to be a HUSKIE!!
Centennial is a great great school. Im a freshmen and I must say it's been the best school I have been to. The students are great the teachers are really nice. The football team is the besst. The only problem is the counseling. We dont get much help that we need especially colllege requirements etc. All in all my brother's and I LOVES Centennial
My daughter attended this school for one semester. I finally had to take her out of the school due to several bullying situations. The administration was no help at all. My daughter had never had a problem previously to attending this school. I would never send one of my children to this school. It is very very scary.
