Central Middle School

umm.. well they need more control... im pretty sure most of the 8th graders do drugs...and it is an unhealthy environment for kids... very rude and mean...would not recommend it...

kids constantly get into fights afer school and im sure teacher hear about it but don't do anything, lots of swearing kids and the teacher's don't care, bad environment...bullies and teacher take sides with the more 'popular' kids.the teaching is kinda poor, and it seems like teacher just want their and don't care about us. some do, but most don't. we get parties,and lunch is pretty good, but the lack of discipline is just awful.

It's an okay school, but the teachers are not the best... they don't act like they actually want to teach kids. the students there are not really disciplined, and the teachers act like kids and only really talk or call on the more 'popular' children. library is nice. some teachers are very good and really do care for the kids. school is pretty clean and it's an okay school...

Central is so awesome! The teachers are great! I enjoy school a lot. The teachers and staff make it fun! (Lunch is way better than any other school's too!)

I thought Central was a very good school but they don't take discipline seriously so a student is always being disruptive and that takes away time from the class. The teachers are very nice and helpful. I think over all the school is very average

My daughter will be a 7th grader at Central this fall and is already looking forward to going back to school. She really enjoyed all of her sixth grade teachers. I felt that the school was inviting, encouraged student participation, provides a family access system that lets parents access their student's information (you can follow up on assignments that have not been turned in, etc.) and has a great teaching staff that encourages parent communication. It is all what you make of it - how you personally help your student transition and enjoy school, assist them with homework, etc. If you as a parent are actively involved in your child's school/community/life, they will have a positive and healthy experience at this school and will enjoy it as much as my daughter does.

Some teachers are excellent and encourage a student to learn and make learning fun. Seventh grade history lady teacher one of the best. The office is very unfriendly. There is no customer service given in a friendly manner. The principal is not well liked by many parents in the district. A lot of the teachers don't follow up with a student to see if homework is turned in. No contact is made with the parent until mid-terms come home. Excellent sport coaches.

Central is not a very good school. This comes from someone who recently attended the school. The teachers never really paid attention to failing grades, and if someone was harrassing someone else, they said they would look into it, but they never did. If you are thinking about enrolling your child into Central, I beg of you not to. You will, and your child will, regret it.

Poor school, principle lacks leadership. Teachers belittle students. More worried about there sport teams then there students. Principle asks parents to leave office when they come in to discuss childs problems.
