I have no doubt that Centennial is the absolutely best place in Tennessee for my children to go to high school. I have a rising freshman that will be a student at Centennial starting in the fall of 2012. I also have a Centennial graduate, class of 07. Last night, I went to the Rising Freshman Night at Centennial. To say I am blown away is an understatement. I have been hearing about great things happening at Centennial for the last year, but to hear and see about it in person took it to a whole new level. The gym was packed and the amount of energy in the place was unbelievable. I was pleased with Centennial when my older child graduated. Now I am beyond pleased and cannot wait for my next child to get there. Dr. Brown's welcome talk had me ready to go back to school myself. Amazing does not describe what is happening at Centennial.
Centennial is a really special place. With the energy that Dr. Brown brings to the school and his philosophy of loving, challenging, and supporting all students, great things are happening at Centennial. The school spirit is amazing, the students are respectful and well mannered, and the teachers are wonderful. We could not be happier. We are one of the families that was rezoned from Ravenwood, which is a good school, but Centennial is pushing our student harder and farther than Ravenwood ever did. Our student does not deal with the clique issues that are rampant at Ravenwood because they just don't seem to exist at Centennial. Join the Centennial family and you will love it too.
My oldest daughter graduated in the Class of 2011. Any parent would want a similarly compelling high school experience for their child. Academics, Art, Choir, Drafting, Student Council, Sports, Spirit, Theater and real relationships with friends and teachers for four years. CHS helped her be accepted at nationally recognized Undergraduate Architecture programs at top universities, with scholarships. The professional educators and administrators at CHS want your child to be successful. They want parents involved (a lot happens between open house and graduation). They will partner with your student to help them discover their interests, strengths, and weaknesses (this is a two way relationship). They will work to create the best possible educational experience for your child within the constraints of the larger Williamson County System. The Parent Teacher Student Organization (PTSO) is a great place to get plugged in. At CHS your families investment will pay a lifetime of dividends. God bless.
We have been completely amazed at how great Centennial is for our children. We moved in from out of state & was expecting TN schools to come up short of our previous schools. We went around to the various schools before purchasing & found CHS to be the most down to earth school in a relatively upper class district. From day one we have had multiple people in the front office, counseling & teachers help us get transitioned to the academic courses & school procedures. As parents we have seen our children love everything from the computer aided design courses to the year round running program to being able to get a quick frap in the school's coffee shop. Our children have been successful within their abilities while getting to know a great group of students. If you are moving to the area, I would encourage you to go to the schools & meet the people who your child will be spending most of their teen years. While the test scores are very respectable for a school of diversity they do not predict my child's success..the people working with them influence the life long learning process along side of parents who truly care. Hope to meet you at one of Centennial's many great functions!
