About Us

Nancy Rousseau

Welcome to the Site of America’s Most Beautiful High School

Our mission is to assist our students in developing the skills necessary to become independent, responsible, self-sufficient adults who will contribute in a global community. Central High School is committed to inspiring each student to the highest standards of intellectual and personal development. We strive to create and maintain a safe, supportive environment in which all students feel valued and respected as they become successful, life-long learners and responsible citizens in a diverse and changing world. Educators and stakeholders will work collaboratively and communicate effectively to ensure the values, behaviors, and expectations necessary to achieve this educational purpose.

It is our pleasure to share with all visitors the “magic” of Little Rock Central High School. Please feel free to contact us if you need more information than what we have provided.
