GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

My overall experience with Miami central senior high school has been well. As a student who's been in attendance since my freshman year I can say this school is phenomenal, despite its few moments of disaster. It is still a overall wonderful school, with wonderful staff who seek the good of students.
