School Reviews

Celina Senior High has always been a good school in Northwest Ohio. The instructors are magnificent and are quite often eager to support the understudies. Obviously there are two or three educators that dislike that, yet you keep running into that all over the place. There are a wide exhibit of courses that the understudies can take. The classes are tough, but in the end it all pays off. I credit a lot of my success to the advisers.

Celina Senior High has always been a good school, and I truly believe it is still one of the best public schools in Northwest Ohio, if not the whole state! The teachers are wonderful and are almost always willing to help the students. Of course there are a couple teachers that are not like that, but you run into that everywhere. There are a wide array of courses that the students can take. The classes are tough, but in the end it all pays off. I credit a lot of my success to CSHS.

As a result, House democrats have taken up the issue in a new bill that would ban all forms of corporal punishment nationwide.
