STATEMENT OF PURPOSE

The purpose of Central High School is to provide its students with opportunities to develop a solid educational foundation with strong emphasis being placed on basic intellectual and social skills development. This foundation will include skills in oral and written communication, quantitative analysis, problem solving, higher-level thinking, and cultural awareness. This foundation will also sufficiently challenge students in daily work and prepare them for all post-secondary opportunities. The curriculum will provide the skills necessary for educational, career, and life choices.

Central High School will provide a safe environment where high expectations and standards exist for all students. Our aim is to encourage empathy, courtesy, and respect for others.

Our high school is to be a community of active learners. Students will be encouraged and challenged to appreciate learning, to become self-directed learners, to develop skills that will enable them to become life-long learners. The successful fulfillment of this mission requires the commitment and cooperation of students, faculty, parents, and the community.
