The best part about ccjshs is that the superintendent is amazing and the teachers are all about learning. The worst part is how there are not enough classes to take to teach about certain things. For example , life, driving, etc. I feel like the school should change the classes, we should have hair classes, drivers ed , etc.

I have been a parent for approximately seven years and I can say my children have had a wonderful educational experience. If I had an issue with a staff, the principal was concerned and handle my situation in a professional way.
