The school is small in size but growing with students every year. There needs to be more inclusion for neurodivergent children however, there are some teachers that seem well versed in supporting those children. The principal this year did not seem to fit the school.. the one prior was very good, it was easy to see how she positively affected the teachers and students.

CB School is "abundantly blessed" in many ways! With technology tools for every student and a variety of MOBILE LABS, smartboards,activeboards, ipads, netbooks, etc., My child was greeted daily by name, as we arrived in the car rider lane. Beautiful smiles from teachers that at one time, also attended and native to the island itself.Those most pleasant staff!

My husband and I love this school. The staff, teachers and principal genuinely care for their students. Everyone knows everyone by name. Parental involvement is highly encouraged. Our daughter is thriving, growing and learning more everyday. We are so happy and blessed that our children get to go to such a wonderful school. Wonderful memories, great academics and a caring, professional staff are what you and your children will get out of this amazing school.

Overall this school invites parent involvement and has a very personal feel that is appropriate for elementary school where children thrive in a close-knit, loving environment. Compare the high test scores that are comparable to other schools in the region who have far fewer economically disadvantaged children and it is amazing what the school accomplishes. There are three teachers that are dreaded - probably fewer than other schools, but I wonder after years of complaints why these teachers are not let go. If you get one, you are stuck. Too many parents want out for them to accomodate anyone. Overall an excellent school!
