About Central Midlands Senior High School

Central Midlands Senior High School opened its doors in 1971. It teaches students from Year 7 to Year 12. In 2012, there were 194 students enrolled. About 20% of these students were Aboriginal.

The school is part of a larger education area. This area includes St James Residential College. This college offers boarding for up to 60 students. This means students can live there while they attend high school.

In 2005, plans were made for new buildings. The school was going to get a new library and a telecentre. A telecentre is a place with computers and internet access. This new building would be used by both the school and the local community. Construction started in 2006 and finished in 2007. It cost $1.4 million to build.

The school has had a few principals over the years. Audrey Smith was the principal until 2010. After her, Lea Fairfoul-Hutcheon became the principal.

The number of students at the school has stayed fairly steady. For example, there were 188 students in 2007. This number grew to 208 students in 2009. By 2012, there were 194 students.
