This school has been amazing for our family. Our child speaks so highly of the staff, and how much better it is than his last school. He’s so happy with the opportunities he has been given here, and he’s SO happy. He speaks of the students and the teachers with nothing but praise and appreciation.

I worked at CMS for several years and had some of the best moments of my life here. This school had some of the best instructors that I have ever been around and some of the best parents I have ever dealt with. With the positives out of the way I will say that overall I personally would not recommend this school because of the downfall of the City that it is in and the below average leadership this school has had on and off for many decades. We were told to not give any students below a 50. We've had teachers and security assaulted with average discipline given. Students sent to the office and back 10 minutes later laughing in our face. Student was stabbed several times with a pencil in the bathroom. Countless incidents with very little time to write about. Alot of good talent have left the school over the years because of lack of support and an unsafe environment. I will say the facilities are beautiful and top notch but what is inside is not. I've seen teachers leave the profession and have an overall bad taste in their mouth. I love the people that work there but overall I can not recommend this school to anyone.
