- we transferred to Oklahoma with my husbands job this school year. We were a little anxious because LA schools have always gotten such a bad rap. I would like to let all parents of Central students know that my daughter and son were more than prepared for this school system. If anything, they are ahead of this school system and it is supposed to be one of the BEST in the state!!! Thanks Central Elementary for preparing my children for living and thriving outside of their comfort zone!!
