It is part of the Clarksville-Montgomery County School System. It has a GreatSchools rating of 8 out of 10.[2] The Montgomery Central Middle School is situated on an adjacent site.

Controversy
In May 2016, the school became the focus of a national controversy when a special-needs autistic student was not able to attend the school's prom with his sister, an alum of Montgomery Central. The sister was 24 years of age, over the age limit of 20 years old.[7][8]
