I also like the positive changes the principal has made over the years to enhance learning (small learning groups) and ease of incoming freshman. Our youngest even begged us not to move so he could attend this school! We agreed, wow if a teen can be this hyped up over a school they must be doing something right.

I think Centennial is a great school. We intentionally moved into the district so that my children could attend this school. I have one graduated in 07, and one Junior and one Freshman. The teachers are great. There's a lot of school spirit. And I love using the ISIS program to stay informed.
