Centralia School District was the first school district in California to provide free textbooks to students, and today is one of only three school districts in Orange County that is not "program improvement". In 2019, the Centralia School District was the first school district in the State of California to offer universal preschool.

According to the 2010 Census, the District's resident population is 55,193 with a demographic of 34% Hispanic, 30% White, 29% Asian, 4% Black, and 3% Other/Mixed Race.

The District is known for their award-winning Food Services program and for having a campus with the largest school-wide standardized test score increase in the State of California between the 2012–13 and 2013–14 school years.

The District is governed by a five-member elected Board of Trustees. In 2014, twenty-year-old Chapman University student Connor Traut was elected to the board of trustees as the youngest Trustee in District history.[1]

Current Trustees are: Henry Charoen, Jerry Flores, Elizabeth Gonzalez, Ian Macdonald, and Art Montez.[2]
