I graduated with the class of 2018 this past May, and I have to say my experience at this school was not great. While some teachers/counselors/staff members were fantastic, many others were rude, short with people, or just generally did not handle a classroom environment effectively. I was in multiple classes where bullying harassment, and chaos were happening right in front of teachers, and nothing was effectively done about it. Additionally, many of the staff members in the offices were rude and unhelpful, and would act like you were an inconvenience if you came to them for help. Communication at this school was also terrible. There were a couple incidents that happened in my senior year where people (especially parents) should have been informed as to what was going on, but the school remained silent until much later on in the day. On top of that, I am still waiting for my 2017-2018 yearbook, which we were supposed to have gotten in July. It is December 2018. Overall, I don't think most people outside of athletes and people in theatre enjoyed their experience at this school. I know I certainly didn't.

The teachers are wonderful but the leadership is lacking. Walk down the halls of this school and the students are cussing, rude and disrespectful. Discipline is nonexistent.

The school does not have a good emphasis on academic achevement. There seems to be more focus on sports than pushing kids to achieve more academically. Relative to where my kids started their schooling in New Jersey, Centennial High School did not have a comparable academic programme.
