Manchester Central High School Reviews
Rating 3.79 out of 5 356 reviews
Although I did have some trouble during school I always bad my counselor and my ceramics teacher looking out for me they always encouraged me and showed me new opportunities to succeed in life from showing me extra credit work to bring my grades higher to showing me to new artists and techniques to further continue my career
You can find anything at Central. A group of long-lasting friends can be made in Maskers, or you could spend your time skipping classes and hiding in the bathrooms eating Domino's. Central can be a dangerous place, and you shouldn't be surprised to hear random bouts of screaming, shouting as fistfights break out, or an announcement putting the school into a shelter-in-place or a lockdown. I've been shoved, knocked down, and caught in the middle of spontaneous bouts of violence as a bystander. If you can handle AP/HON courses, I'd highly recommend it, even if it's just to be with the "good kids". Also, joining the music department would be a worthwhile choice. Kids are mean, and teenagers are worse, and the teachers don't really care. Some teachers will go out of their way to make you miserable. Others will be the best you'll ever have.
Okay so first off the reason why I rated the school I attend is because of the students. The students well at least most of them are skipping classes, going into the bathrooms and smoking, leaving campus when they're not supposed to, and it's really a hassle to be near people like this. One thing I would change about our school is to establish a disciplinary committee of students who can give warnings to other students who aren't doing the right thing and after a certain amount of warnings they will be suspended if they continue their behavior they will be permanently removed from the school.
