Read what parents are saying about Central Elementary SchoolMy children have thrived at Central. We moved here for the schools and have been very happy! Principal Dygert is wonderful, engaging and positive with everyone. The kids are challenged each day - we love it! Way to go Central El!
Posted by a parent on 7/27/2014New principal (Mr. Surian) this past fall as definitely made a difference in this school for the better! Such a tremendous positive feel in the building, I believe you wouldn't recognize it from last year! Amazing! Many great teachers. I think Central is on it's way to the best in the district!
Posted by a parent on 1/22/2013This is my son's second year at this school and I've been very happy with his teachers. As an elementary teacher myself, I can say they have gone above and beyond what I have expected them to do for my son. The school has a new principal as of 2012 and there is a positive feel to the building. Parent participation is excellent.

5/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMy 2 kids are loving going to Haverhill! Starting with the Principle; Mr.Zonts truly loves his job, thr school, and students. He is always very visible and involved with daily activities. He does communication meets every morning, so parents know whats going on. The Teacher are supportive for the students and we have had great experience with all but 1 in 5 years. The PTO, is amazing! They are always planning activities for the students to do and getting Everyone no matter who or where your from involved. Haverhill deserves way higher then a 4 rating!!

N/AGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMy son is finishing up one year (8th grade) as he attended during Covid. My only regret is we didn’t enroll him sooner.His teachers care deeply for him and the students, and the curriculum is excellent. Because the school is small, scholars are given the benefit of attention. Students are encouraged to excel and their strengths are really highlighted. My son really hit his stride while under the direction of the school’s excellent programming. The principal is at the door every single morning greeting the children. One day this year he wasn’t there. No other school does that. The parent involvement is high. There is a deep sense of community among the children, but also among families. What stands out to me is that people are genuine and authentic. They demonstrate faith, it’s not overwhelming and overdone. I appreciate that.With respect to cost, it is the highest value. The facility is beautiful. The building is very new, as is the equipment. It cost more to have him in daycare as an infant that it costs to give him a high end education now. Money well spent. Highly highly highly recommend.Parent Review2y ago
