This school graduated its last class in 2010 therefore, reviews after that date do not reflect on the current school district "Central Valley

As a graduate from '09, I can say that Center/Central Valley's academics are mediocre. There are a few good teachers left here, but many of them will retire soon. Center does not challenge students who need it. Teachers and guidance counselors recommend that students go to Penn State-Beaver, Slippery Rock, and IUP for a "good" education. They expect their students to be average, so they produce average students. Send your children here if you do not expect much from them.

From the perils of enormous distractions and side shows anyone can achieve anything however the ODDS are not in your favor. School is an institution of learning not a day holding cell for the disinterested. This school has many disinterested, thereby needing side show entertainments to keep the lost occupied. The intelligent students suffer as they are not feed enough knowledge that is needed to place in good universities. This school has declined as a suburban over rated lemon stand. Change is needed, educators need to educate and less emphases on the side shows.

Terrible schools. Political hires that do not prepare children for college. FAR too many students on the "honor rolls". Will end up like Aliquippa.
