My daughter is a freshman this year and they have made her feel welcome. Everyone was very friendly and helpful. Thanks to everyone who made the transition easy as possible.

Way too many students to 1 teacher in a class. Very little supervision given the mass amount of students coming and going throughout the day. Teacher turnover is one of the highest of any school in BISD. Zoning requirements are not enforced therefore Centennial services many students from other school districts if the student can receive a better education. This has created a bigger responsibility for the staff & educators at CHS because many of these out of district students that transfer into CHS have other needs outside education that the law requires the school must meet therefore the students who attend CHS as the home school for which they are zoned in...are often not getting the attention and educational instruction needed. Mega High Schools such as CHS offer many opportunities, however it is up to the student and the parent to seek these opportunities out. Many families have no idea what all CHS offers, which is unfortunate. There needs to be more staff and teachers in order for CHS to become all it was intended to be
