We just moved to the area and started at the school last year. Our experience has definitely been a positive one. The administration has been very responsive, and does a great job of keeping us informed as to the events and changes. The teachers are excellent, and the school is in great condition.

Many opportunities for extra academic help before school and during flex. Teachers encourage and develop independence in students’ responsibility and advocacy. After school clubs run by staff provide additional experiences for students. We have had many good, some excellent, and few poor teachers in our experience with CBMS. Middle School is a tough age group but most of the staff at CBMS, in our experience, have been great for our children.

Terrible! The poor education and the bullying is beyond out of control. The administrative needs and overhaul, especially the Principal, 7th Grade Vice Principal and especial the school Police Officer.

terrible because there is no respect or help for students and teacher and administrators cuss out students all of the time

There has been several race relation issues at this school this year. I do believe this should be captured for a prospective parent’s awareness. Two noose were were hung inside the school alone by mid year.

Concerning that there are always fights at the school not to mention the racist antics. My child complains about the lack of structure, fights, kids yelling down the halls flipping the finger, getting sexually harassed by male students, cat calling, the lack of respect many of the students have for teachers, school, and other students. Sinks being pulled out of walls, vaping in the bathrooms, stuffing paper towels down toilets. Teachers ignoring cussing. It’s like adults on Facebook. Getting to be as bad as city schools back in the day.

My years at Chesapeake Bay Middle School, were awful. I was bullied and none of the staff did anything, I failed my eighth grade year and now I have to go back to that awful school because my parents didn't want to spend 600 dollars on summer school. Now I have to work twice as hard so I can graduate with my friends. When I was failing I tried my hardest to bring one of my grades up, 6 more points was all I needed, I was going in the lowest classes anyway. My experience at C.B.M.S. was the worst I have ever had.

My daughter is enjoying her first year in middle school. She enjoys her teachers and is enjoying academic success. The staff is focused on teaching these kids and preparing them for success in high school.
