“I think it is wonderful that there is still a school out there that not only has all of their arts departments still, but that has a fine arts program as well. It is so important for kids to have those options in school. We have also had a very wonderful experience with the teachers and other staff.”

“This school has created an atmosphere in which students go beyond regular academic curriculum. They are given opportunities to explore what is missing in education today--the creative nature of themselves in a fine arts environment. What an amazing concept that could potentially change that child's world going forward! While the rest of the schools are not doing so well even teaching the basics successfully, we can see a joyful expanded education being implemented at Centennial Academy of Fine Education! They are brilliant and obviouly care about giving the best opportunities for success for All the students! Bravo! (I am a retired teacher and my grandchildren are all in elementary schools, but this one is the best!)”

“my daughter has been at this school since pre-school. she is in 4th grade now. we have moved several times up to 20 miles away but keep her at Centennial because it is the best. She loves all her teachers and cries at the end of the year because she does not want a new teacher but then ends up loving the new one just as much as the old ones. The staff there treats you like family.”

“There are many wonderful things about Centennial such as parent involvement and the fine arts program. The special education program is excellent. Having a full day kindergarten is a big benefit for parents of children entering the school system. I dislike the 'everyday' math program adopted by the school because it does not concentrate on the building blocks of math, the facts. The reading program is not purely based on phonics but is a combination of phonics and sight recognition. I feel that the higher grades had better instruction although this opinion is based on my experiences. In all fairness, my children did not have every teacher. The quality of the instructors varies drastically. I am perplexed by the number of out of district enrolled students. This is an average school academically. if you are interested in your child receiving an 'art' education, this is the place for you.”

“School has teachers who really care about the students academic learning. They have a wonderful music and arts program. Each student gets to choose from a long list of fine arts classes. There are plenty of parents nights to see the children perform what they learned each semester. A great school starting from the principal down to the wonderful parent who give their time.”
