If your child has an IEP, find another school. They do not care about IEPs, do not support them, do not follow them. In fact the have actively refused to follow my son's IEP. All they care about is statistics. Probably the same statistics that tell you this school is 7 out of 10.
Thanks to this school and their complete lack of care and support, he has lost a year of his life. Absolutely disgusting. Senior staff will not return calls. I do not understand how they can get away with this.
Anyways, please learn from our horrible experience. If you child has an IEP, please find them a more caring and supportive school.

We have recently moved into Virginia. Coming from the West Coast we are very pleased with CSMS. The Dedication to structure and education was our first impression. Many sports, as well as after school electives and extended tutoring if needed. Great caring staff that are willing to listen to both student and parents.
We are happy to be a part of Cave Springs Middle School.

This is a wonderful school. I love their academic layout. The Pre-AP classes are very advanced, better than the schools in New York (Long Island). They provide a stimulating curriculum, my son enjoys school and is a straight A-Pre-AP student. I am so glad the State of Virginia has not adopted Common Core. Common Core is one of the worst teaching platforms and it wastes valuable time with tests that are never used. I am so pleased with the access my son has to his teachers, staff and extra curriculum activities.

We have loved this school. I have two very different style learning children and they both have done extremely well! It is not easy but the teachers are young and eager to get them ready for high school and even college. My kids have learned awesome study skills as middle schoolers! The environment is new, clean and bright!

This school is wonderful! It has now been completely rebuilt. (Old buillding torn down and new one built) Nothing from the old building was brought into the new one. Bright, beautiful classrooms. Brand new computers, active boards, etc. The staff and teachers are great for the most part. I am a parent with my second child now attending and I have had only one complaint in 3 years. My children have done exceptionally well here both academically and socially.

This school is terrible. If your child has ANY special needs (adhd, any learning disabilities, etc) do not send them here. They will not get the support they need and be treated like something no one wants to deal with. My son is in 7th grade was in honors last year at his old school and is almost failing this year from the lack of support. Everything is a fight to get the child what they need here. My son will not go back to this school. He also says the kids are snobby and gets bullied quite a bit. Horrible horrible school!
