I graduated from Central SENIOR High School in 1975. With the best teachers of the time, I can only hope that the youth of today have the wisdom of Mr. Sasser, and Mr. Alvereze

The school was excellent as far as the education. The teachers were well educated in their field of specialty and I can honestly say I was not bored. I also enjoyed the Cooperative Office Education Program (COE) that helped prepare me for job placement in the Federal Government.
