  The referrals are ridiculous and there's an article showing it went up 150 percent in Brevard County. I understand because teachers don't get paid enough in this area. So a quick n easy write a referral to not have to deal with anything. My son got a referral end of week of school which ended up in 2 days suspension for a minor referral and because there was no more iss. He missed finals and had to make up for it. Days are unexcused as well. From what my 3 children 16,14,12 all say the same thing about this school is that teachers don't care and I learned this year they are referral happy because it makes their job easier.

  Teachers are awesome. Most of the kids are great too. One year my son was there. Late in the year a couple of kids misbehaved. But overall. School is great. There’s lots of clubs that get kids involved. My son was in 3-4 of them. He loved it.

  Got a detention for running, they called it horseplay. But they don't let them run in P.E. either, what do we do? If I could give a zero stars I would.

  Communication with teachers is virtually impossible. The answer I got time and again we’re the largest middle school. 1300 students. Classrooms 25-27 students. They stopped apologizing for not returning emails, messages or phone calls. Bottom line: there are excellent teachers. But with all the school’s discipline problems and large classroom sizes- it was horrible for my son. His behavior changed for the worse. He started failing classes. When I asked for papers to withdraw him as a student , they said we could try the Eagle Program to get a better classroom environment(avoid the troubled kids). The day before I withdrew my son he said he was a bad kid. ‘Why?’ I asked. ‘Because I’m in the classes with the bad kids.’ In the mornings kids would get dropped off earlier. And a group of boys would normally be running around the front of the school playing and stuff. Then they started playing rap music with expletives. Blaring it out. And one boy took off his t shirt and proceeded to blast out the music. The resource officer got out of his squad car and walked past him and went into the front office. He didn’t do anything. Why? It was a normal morning. This was normal behavior. It’s sad because there are a lot of good kids there.

  If there was a negative number for rating, it would be a negative 10. While there are some (very few) teachers who actually care for students (and not necessarily their own), the teachers and staff who do not care outweigh any positives that are found.

  I wouldn't even bring my child here if I had the chance. I was greeted with attitudes and stank faces.

  Almost everyone here is rude. Barely anyone knows how to direct and teach. This school needs a major upgrade in staff and teachers.

  Central is okay, I'm in the MYP program and I don't think I can last longer. The MYP teachers give way too much homework for me to handle. I play sports, and I know that school comes first, but having to stay up until 1-3 in the morning, even when I don't have practice is ridiculous. I secretly struggle with depression & self-harm, & this school is stressing me out. Teachers don't realize that some students are collapsing under the pressure they have put on them to succeed. Some teachers are just rude embarrass you in front of people without thinking. I also have like, 5 minutes to eat lunch everyday. There are 3 normal, a snack (rarely) & a line where you can buy other food everyday, and they're way too long, and I want time to eat my food. They also have bad requirements for MYP. I don't want to take Spanish until High School, yet I HAVE to take it, which I don't think is fair. There's lots of unnecessary rules that don't keep us any safer. Overall, I don't enjoy central.

  I am a former student of Central Middle School. As far as i know its a decent school. The students that attend this school are rebellious and act out in rash manners however there are some really nice one. It really just depends on the groups of students you surround yourself with. A lot of physical fights occur mainly from rumors and he say she say.The fights are very very violent . The teachers that work there are okay. I don"t know that for all the teachers but personally for mine , i wish they were more involved and motivational. great dance and cheer program. WARNING : the food is not the best
