GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

As a magnet kid in seventh grade, I would not recommend going to this school, especially if you're not a magnet kid. To start, all of the administration are constantly lecturing us about how great the school is and how lucky we are to be going there. This is baffling to me, because the school really isn't that great. However, we frequently have pep rallies and assemblies that shove school spirit down our throats. The school is not sanitary at all; the bathrooms are constantly needing to be cleaned. The administrators are always yelling and not very friendly. It's really hard to get help around there. When the pep rally gave me a panic attack, I was told I couldn't go anywhere without a pass, but was luckily rescued by one of the good teacher. As a magnet kid, the curriculum is very good, but I feel bad for my residential friends, who don't have it as good. There's a really big divide between us, and it's hard to feel united as a grade when I don't know half the people.

I transferred to CMS during 7th grade. I had been attending a highly rated private school, but had to transfer for financial reasons. I was worried at first, but my experience has been great. I love going to school with my friends from the neighborhood. Classes are good and teachers are better than my other school.

A current student here, our teacher tried to have us eat food in class as a treat before thanksgiving breaks. However, she was sick the day of, so we had to go to the cafeteria. However, a teacher (not going to say any names) said we could not eat it. We bought this food and we could not bring it. W...

The educational part of the school is average and most of the teachers are fair with homework and discipline. The state of the school, however, is an entirely different thing. Today at school, a girl was served moldy food from the cafeteria. Do you know how many students depend on the cafeteria for...

Hi, I am a student here, and I just want all the parents to know they don't send your kids here. Whatever you don't send them here. Here is the reason why you can't send them here. First, they don't clean up. Second, they have a lot of bugs. Third, they had a rat on my bus, and it was dead. And they...
