7/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThis is a horrible school. There is no communication between parents and school staff. There is a blonde lady who helps the special needs children on the bus after school, she is very handsy and mouthy with the kids. It is highly unprofessional, along with the poor behavior from the front office staff. I would not recommend this school to any family or friends.Parent Review4y ago - High School Of Commerce

1/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageSpringfield Central High School has been great so far for my son. We came here from another city after he finished middle school at first we were nervous if he would fit in if he would do well there and if the academics would be good. So far he has fit in and done very well last year he finished his freshman year with a 4.0GPA and is trending in same direction into sophomore year. He is in all AP classes and said the teachers are way better and laid back compared to our old city. He said teachers aren't rude at all and very laid back as long as your doing what your supposed to your work is done and your grades are good which I feel is great as I think some teachers are way to strict and cause unnecessary stress on students obviously if a kis is acting up and work isn't done than thats a different story. The sports at this school are extremely important also to this school and they are pretty good and win alot especially their football team which I believe is D1 and faces the best Massachusetts has to offer and even teams like IMG from Florida has came to play us. The coaches are great and they communicate with parents well and are always available to answer any questions or concerns. They have a great lifting program and are great with helping get your kid recruited if they want to play in college. I would recommend any one who is on the fence about what school to choose in Springfield that Central should be their top choice.Parent Review7mo ago - STEM Middle Academy
