Overall I have had a good experience with Clarke Central. Many wonderful teachers who take a real interest, plenty of opportunities and extra curricular activities. I get the impression that student violence is on the “more common” side but I can say first hand that it’s not hard for a student to stay out of all that. I will say the schedule leaves little wiggle room, 5 minutes between classes on a sprawling campus, 20 minute lunches (and the kids who have the last lunch are so often out of luck- I mean I have been sent photos of food that is inedible! So one of my sons often takes lunch with him) and I can only speak for my own kids when I say candidly- they refuse to use the bathrooms while at school, and are practically afraid of bathrooms. I suppose a lot of shady nonsense goes on and besides they don’t have a lot of time for it. There was one egregious clerical error, resulting in some real problems for a day (my child was disenrolled and all saved schoolwork on his student account was gone) thankfully I had the day off and was able to track down the proof that this was an error on their side and not mine. I was lied to and never apologized to but it was cleared up and his work was restored so “no harm no foul”. Again though, on the whole I’ve really appreciated specific teachers and the attempts at community engagement.

Its really bad and unreasonable. They dont care about the students. They teach so bad and they make it long and tedious, therefore, students don't work and learn. They don't let you make a sound. And they remove all the fun. They want you to do like 7 hours of work so students don't have time to spend with their parents. Students also depressed and tired. really bad school DO NOT go here.

My son has loved every minute at this school! We are always greeted with a smile each morning and help is ready at hand with any question!
