As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

Centennial has a good principal. The students also have a beautiful building to attend school in. The majority of teachers provide a great learning experience. Sadly however, many students who attend school at Centennial Jr High live in an area in which the residents consider themselves to be "elite" people. This carries over into how students interact with one another. I personally believe that the students have grown up witth the idea that they are wonderful, elite people. If the students feel threatened by anyone who may challenge their belief that they're number one, then many of them don't know how to cope with it. Unfortunately because of this prevalent attitude that exists in so many students there, my kids have consistently had mean rumors spread about them, they've been called mean and derogatory names, and they've had mean things done to them. I'm sure some have had a better experience than we have, but I can't say that this school is a wonderful fit for everyone.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
