"As I strolled into the High School in the fall of my freshman year, I stopped and had one resonating thought: 'Man, this place smells terrible!'" -Every person who has ever given a speech at a CYHS graduation As I attended this institution for four grueling years, it would be too great a task to write this review in the same fashion as my others, therefore I will break it up into four categories. Enjoy. Administration: The Administration at Central was decent. Although they seemed to shove a new initiative down our throats every other week, they did their jobs effectively. From time to time incompetency was shown, no doubt. Whether it be "Hallway Freezes" which lasted all of two days or deciding to hold graduation inside on a perfectly rainless night, you sometimes wondered if a six year was really pulling the strings. However, overall a satisfactory job was performed. 3/5 Teachers: It's hard to rate all teachers under one sweeping review, but I'm gonna do it. A handful of teachers guided me through tough times, challenged me to want more from myself, and taught me to question the very fabric of the universe. Others were petty schmucks, no more mature than the students they're suppose to be "facilitating" knowledge to, who shouldn't be allowed within 100 feet of any children. An exemplary display of many teachers true nature happened when I was in 10th grade. Rolling up on the bus and into the U there were nearly 50 teachers standing out in "revolt." Here they stood in some sort of protest against the school board. I asked several of the participating teachers what they were doing there and they all spouted off some BS about showing their unity as teachers. What a gloriously hypocritical thing to do. Openly show your dissatisfaction for the administration to hundreds of students, yet still expect the students to adhere to the rules set by the administrators. 2.75/5 Library: Books... Technology. Long ago, the two nations lived together in harmony. Then everything changed when the Tech Office attacked. The hostile takeover of the library by the Tech Office was a tragedy I will not soon forget. Led by the mighty BOOM BOOM himself, the Tech Office took no prisoners in its conquest. They forced the kind old librarian into retirement and slapped a hideous new name on the former great educational center: The HUB. It gives me chills just typing it. They expected everyone to just accept the new changes and that everything would be fine. But I won't forget. I won't forgive. R.I.P. Library 2008-2015 2/5 Cafeteria/Lunch: The cafeteria was just okay. At rush hour it was like a mosh pit minus the music and everything else that makes a mosh pit cool. The food itself was edible as long as you didn't gaze upon it for too long. Usually there were two to three decent meals a week. Every other day was a chicken patty day. The ever reliable chicken patty. Between cursing the name "Michelle Obama" and choking down whatever slop was on my tray, I had an enjoyable time in the cafeteria. 3/5 The final story I'd like to share is how my incarceration at CYHS ended. After wiping my cap into the air and waddling to the exit, I stopped and locked eyes with Dr. Czarnecki. We exchanged the following words. Dr. C: "Have a happy life, it's all you can really ask for." Me, unfolding and sliding sunglasses on: "You got it." Dr. C, also with sunglasses on: "You got it." read more
