Overall, the school was horrible. Learning about this school, they don't care about their students. Only a few teachers ever cared, but they didn't bring the right punishment. For example, this one kid lost his hearing from another child, but the school only gave him lunch detention. Also, the food at the school was horrible, moldy bread on sandwiches. The recent rules added to the school were harsh as well. These rules included a "No drop-off zone" causing children to become later than ever, and enforced the phone policy. The new phone policy was a bad idea because what if an child is in danger, and he doesn't have his phone? I've seen people try to report bullying to the office, or otherwise and it never worked. They did absolutely NOTHING. I've even found many children in your school with severe depression or anxiety because of these problems. I do not recommend this school at all.

We are pulling our child out to homeschool her due to the bullying, theft, and lack of caring from the teachers and staff. Bad experience. Would not recommend. Go private, charter or homeschool. Avoid CSMS.

Some great teachers. They need to update this though since the principal and vice principal have both changed in the past couple of years. We haven't had much interaction with them though to review them individually.

I am graduating this year. Threw my 3 years at Camerado I thought it was amazing! The teachers make sure you learn everything you need to, they are always helping you and always make sure you know what there talking about. They have a wonderful band, the teacher is absolutely amazing...sure some students can takethe teachers as "harsh" or "pushy, annoying" things along those lines....but those are particualrily the children that don't enjoy learning or despise school with a firey passion...over my 3 years here, looking back, I wound never choose a different school..it is simple amazing! They also have a geat deal of other extra crecualr classes such as wook shop, Art, Spanish & Leadership.

i do not like this school. the administration is not very good and the teachers are very hard. they expect too much from the students. the yard duties are cruel.

The school offers many reward programs and positive reinforcements to motivate students. There are also many incredible staff members that inspire learning to all ends of the spectrum...appropriate placement for stuggling students and a strong push for the higher achievers. I have two children with completely different needs attending and both have been very happy at Camerado.

The school does have a good music program and some great teachers, but I would not recommend it. There is way too much homework, and students and teachers at other schools see it as a "bad" school, which unfortunately is partly true. Some of the teachers need to realize that this is a middle school, not a high school. School leadership is great, and extra- curricular activites are excellent. There is almost no GATE program, however.

My child is a 6th grader this year. Yes, they have a great music program with an excellent teacher. They do have some caring, inspiring teachers. However, the culture of the school is basically that the kids are 'bad' until they prove otherwise. The students receive a ridiculous amount of homework. My daughter is a straight A student, but feels like she has lost her childhood. She averages 1-3 hours of homework a night & they assign homework on weekends.
