Central high School Also known as CHS by Many of the phildelphians is one of the most known cllege prepetory school in the country. Known for its excellence the school continues to keep its perfect record of achivment. The school started in aout the late 1800 and since has moved about 3 times to its current spot. Serving the community of Philadelphia for more than 150 years, Central High School stands as a monument to perhaps the most significant enterprise of human kind. This enterprise is based on the proposition that all the citizens of a nation shall be educated to the fullest extent of their ability and aspiration so that a free and open society may be sustained for all times. Central High School was, indeed, the first institution in the United States dedicated to offering advanced education at public expense to students simply because they were citizens and also demonstrated a love and desire for learning. While some would say this school is overrated we do provide you with the best education possible in a school district with out pay the private school money (instead you loose it in taxes...chuckle chuckle). It also has provides anout reach of music and arts that no other school has. To tink also that Such an education should certainly be grounded in the rich heritage of knowledge on which our culture is based. But also, this education must center on the process of human interaction which makes an open society possible. This means that our students must develop habits of personal responsibility while collaborating with one another in solving problems, overcoming obstacles, and shaping their lives in mutual support. As a faculty we are dedicated to the role of enabler in the education of our students not regarding them as empty vessels into which something called knowledge is poured, but as partners in the lifetime enterprise of learning what there is to know, and how to act humanly with what they know. We regard ourselves as guides and mentors in this often perplexing undertaking. We seek always to create an academic community in which learning is the common bond and where differences of personal conviction, cultural background, and ethnic origin are not regarded as problems, but as conditions to be held in reverence, indeed, as the very stuff of learning itself. THis school in basic wants to teach how to be a productive student and in future a citizen
