Overpriced and invasive. Now they want to restrict my child air to make masks mandatory. I am taking my kid out of there.

A very strict and rule heavy school Which causes a lot of complaints from kids . However, the education was pretty average . I personally haven't had the worst experience there but not the high school experience I would have wanted . There's hardly any field trips or interactive learning. As I get older as well I would prefer to do more college filled activities, but from what I've seen you don't do much of those till senior year . My biggest complaint however would just be how small the actual facility in itself . Theres not much room for students in the halls as well as classrooms. As we expand as a school the facility should as well. I would not like to be in a cramped learning environment .

This school in my opinion should be shut down and loose their accreditation. They don't educate the students but make them stay in the gym or the lunch room for long periods of time. The middle school principle and his staff are totally disrespectful. I have never seen a school who dislikes the fact...

My son is in middle school here and he comes home everyday happy and excited about school. My experiences with his teachers and staff has been nothing but pleasant and informative. He will continue at this school until he graduated high school. We love Cornerstone!
