Celina high school is getting expanded with more facilities. School focus mainly on college readiness and put all efforts to provide quality education.

Prioritizes sports and athletes above all, many teachers are coaches that are only teaching subjects out of requirement. “Teaching to the test” is very common and school is becoming overcrowded.

Very high standard in perspective of both academic and sports

Teachers are very nice and my son loves the environment. They encourage lots of engagement to keep everyone in the loop which ensures that no one is being left behind! Curriculum is very well taught and I’m happy as a parent that my son can reach out to anyone at Celina High regarding any help and he’ll get it.

School offers accommodations for new students and is very welcoming. Great experience for us coming from the city life to a small town, that indeed is growing fast as well.

Horrible and never recommend it for anyone

We've had in a variety of school districts and I have to say as far as children with learning struggles this school has been the least proactive. I'm giving 2 stars based on my child's situation. If you have a child that doesn't struggle then I'm sure the overall experience with this school would be great. Great community other than that.

We moved to Celina, summer 2007. Our son was entering the 4th grade.We have felt nothing but love since we arrived. The town, the people, the schools, ...everything is great in this small town...Best Decision we ever made :-) Our son will be a Senior next year, takes all advanced classes, makes all A's, NHS member and has been in the Celina Band program since 6th grade, marching band going on 4 years...it has been an awesome experience!! The small class sizes and close feeling of community is priceless!

We searched all over TX, VA, TN, and many other states, but found Celina, TX had an excellent school, caring teachers, awesome tradition in sports with record 8 State Championships in Football and many in Track. Still has a small town charm and lots of homes being built every month. Lots of nice people is what you'll find in Celina, TX.

Celina High offers a small school environment, promotes self-discipline, has supportive teachers, and is smartly planning for Celina's growth in the next decade.

We have two kids here, and, as others have mentioned, there's a distinct resentment of newcomers. Sports are pushed above all, while funding for specialized learning assistance as been slashed, Additionally, Celina is extremely proud of its overwhelmingly Protestant and quasi-fundamentalist nature, to the point of many district administrators and employees publicly decrying the separation of Churrch & State, and teachers & principals administering discipline based on who they "know are good Christians" from their churches versus those who don't attend. It's pretty oppressive if you're not a "fundie" yourself. Academics focus on worksheets upon worksheets, "teaching to the test", etc.

Celina high school is a joke the it's split between athletics and people who aren't in athletics football players get special privileges that other students don't when you graduate your not prepared for college your not prepared for life outside of high school.. Its a horrible school district that waisted my time teaching me absolutely nothing
