Centennial High School | Calgary Board of Education

Centennial is a good school. Never had any bad experiences except with a sub. I’ve heard in other student reviews that there’s some not so friendly teachers, which concerns me a lil bit. Other than that, I’ve made some friends pretty quickly, most of them semester 2, and all of my teachers have been good. Hope all of have a good experience as well

This school traumatized me the students and some teachers made it impossible to feel at peace there, I went from grade 10-12. Mr Buracus, constantly failed to mark assignments properly, telling me I got 19% on a test when it was 19/21 on the test! All he does is talk about his daughter and yell at us. The bullying at this school was constant, people took photos of me and posted them on their snap stories, total cyber bullying and when I reached out to teachers for help they did nothing!!! The only positive is Mr Hornby, best teacher ever he really helped me get through school, by being so understanding and supportive. I could complain about a million other things, but honestly not worth my time. OTHER THAN MR. HORNBY THIS SCHOOL SUCKS!!!

I love this school so much it has actually made me want a future! Some of the teachers are kinda strict but other wise it’s really fun school. There are some people who are not nice but that’s normal with public schools. I highly recommend this school!

Reflecting on my time at Cent always makes me smile and feel so grateful for the three years I spent there.nnI wasn’t very studious but teachers were willing to help me where needed. And being able to experience classes unique to Cent at the time such as the foods program and Pre Engineering was a real joy. Also a major highlight for me was gym, throughout all three years getting introduced to niche sports and the sense of community harboured in the class were just two of the many aspects of the class I thoroughly enjoyed.nnMy most treasured memories from Highschool, however, was my time spent with the Lads. What started as a group chat from a Social Studies class turned into a group of life long friends. Although we all parted ways after our time at Cent we kept in touch and would moss everytime were all back in Calgary. This past summer 6 years later all of the boys came out to my wedding and I couldn’t imagine it without them there. These guys are the best and I am so grateful to have formed such deep, long lasting friendship originating at Cent.nnThank you Centennial Highschool for such a great three years, new opportunities, and fostering an environment for friendships to thrive.nnP.S. just wanted to add as well KVL pulled me out of one of my classes one time as she needed to collect a form from me to allow travel for a band field trip. I did not have it signed I was a repeat offender and didn’t have forms signed all the time. She knew this and told me right there that I “had to get my sh*t together” and at the time I was very taken aback by this but honestly was a huge turning point for me and I realized that she was right. So if you’re reading this KVL, thanks for telling me the tough truth here.
