Central Academy of Excellence

Central Academy of Excellence ''(formerly Central High School)'' is a high school located at 3221 Indiana Avenue in Kansas City, Missouri and it is part of the Kansas City Public Schools.〔(Achievement First )〕 Central was established in 1884 in order to help educate the growing population of Kansas City. The school colors are blue and white and the school's athletic teams are referred to as the "Eagles". Central has an enrollment of approximately 1,000 students annually.
==School Background==
The high school is in front of the now vacant Central Middle School building at the corner of Linwood Boulevard and Indiana Avenue. It features a large, one acre square fieldhouse, Greek Style Theatre, and an Olympic size swimming pool with a one and three meter diving board.
Central Academy was also part of the now defunct "Magnet Program" which was a response to a court mandated, forced desegregation plan that was designed to try and lure students from the suburbs with targeted programs. As part of this effort, Central High School was rebuilt and renamed to Central Computers Unlimited / Classical Greek Magnet High School. The two magnet themes where not complimentary to each other and most of the money spent on the new facility went to the Classical Greek theme for sports related facilities like a fully outfitted weight room (inspired by the weight room of the Kansas City Chiefs), two indoor racquetball courts, a one-acre square field house, a fully equipped gymnastics training facility, and an Olympic size swimming pool. The computers unlimited theme brought with it a fully networked classroom environment with computers in most of the classrooms and a Novell NetWare v3.11 network. There was also a small robotics lab, a video / photography / graphics lab, and a CAD lab. The cost, to taxpayers, for the new facility was over $32 million and it was completed in 1991. Unfortunately, the new facilities and programs were not enough to bring in and retain suburban students in this and other Magnet program schools. The program was an abject failure by any measure and was abandoned. The references to the Magnet themes were removed from the schools name and it was returned to a normal curriculum.
