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.

Middle school sucks for everyone no matter where you go and Chelsea middle school is no different. All students get laptops and lots of resources to study but they have sports and band to pick from for clubs, they just started a theater program but in the past, they have had one multiple times and gotten rid of it the next year. Personally I would recommend other schools in the area over Chelsea.

CHMS has great teachers but the physical education department needs an overhaul. New equipment and facilities is much needed, as well as a challenging and engaging program.
