Central is a great school loaded with lots of great teachers. The teachers really reinforce the material well, understanding that homework isn’t the only way to do that. It is a small school, meaning that you get a very personalized experience and get to know the teachers. There are lots of opportunities at Central to do extracurriculars, sports, clubs, and consortium events. The school itself is renovating each year to keep up with student needs, interests, and trends. Furthermore, the experience at Central for your student will prepare them for high school by allowing them to feel more freedom as they progress through the grades; and by also creating and curating assignments that challenges the student, but also leaves room for improvement. To conclude, going to Central Middle School is a pleasure for a student, it is a nice environment where each student receives consistently personalized educational instruction, so that they can improve on skills that they need work on.

We have been incredibly happy with the Long Hill school district and the care they place on our children and community.

Teachers are passionate and actually care about the students. Being a teacher in today's climate is a difficult job, but they handle difficult situations with patience grace. Highly recommend.

In awe with all of these reviews. I’ll give you the fact and my experience. 1) Im Hispanic and my children are half Hispanic half black. 2) currently have 2 kids attending WHRHS - a senior and a junior who is severely autistic. My senior is currently in a handful of AP classes and the amount of support she has obtained for college is amazing. Teachers here are gracious, helpful, and fair. The amount of clubs and sports they offer are a lot, and they encourage everyone. As a minority, I teach my children about meritocracy!!! Things need to be based on MERIT, and NOT the color of your skin. So whoever said there is no diversity or inclusivity can kick rocks cuz with hard work and determination, these kids can do what they want. Now, my youngest daughter who is autistic, I have NOT had a great experience at WHRHS. I encourage those with special needs to research appropriate schools for your kids. If your child has behavioral issues, this is NOT the school for them. They do not provide ABA. My daughter has a condition called Trichotillomania (where she pulls out her own hair). She suffers from several stimming issues, and wish I would have tried to put her in a high school that would give her the services she requires. She’s a junior and hoping I can get her in a different school by next year. Needless to say, neurotypical kids at this school will thrive.. neurodivergent won’t depending on the severity. The staff special education teachers are nice, but the personal aides, I have yet to meet them, and they often change. In her previous school I was in constant communication with the aides more than her teachers. Do not expect this from this school.
