My child disliked this school a lot and I can see why. The schedule isn't great, some students seem to be very rude, and some teachers are also very rude I would not recommend this school at all!

As a current student myself, I am not enjoying this school. I feel unsafe and some teachers are really mean. Not everything is bad but I wouldn't recommend this school at all. Not only that but the schedule feels uncomfortable, and it just doesn't work for me.

As a student here currently, I am very ashamed to be going here. Let me list a few reasons. First of all, the meatheads who think they're gangsters. One time while walking out the door, I could hear people talking about them having guns on them. This also ties into why I don't use the bathroom at this school, because honestly, I'm too scared of getting mugged, and/or robbed. I will give this school some credit though, as it has made my love for science and writing expand, but besides all of that, terrible place. Mostly because of the "people" that play sports, and get away with EVERYTHING.

When I went to this school I had so many mean teachers I had a teacher yell at me bc my computer was broken making a noise but she wouldnt let me go get it fixed, I had another teacher get mad at me for fidgeting bc my adhd and she wouldnt let me explain she also would yell at me for the most stupidest reasons and then would email my parents saying that she didnt yell at me but my parents believed me, I had all fs before I left that school then when I moved to a new school I got all as, the only good thing about that school is that there are I few teachers looking out for you.

It is alright. But we learn things we will never need in our daily lives.

CHMS is a wonderful school! If parents are worried about their 6th graders entering a middle school....DON'T worry! The program set up, to get 6th graders adjusted to middle school, is fantastic! 6th graders love it! The teachers work together to make sure their students, in all grades, get the best education possible! Teachers at CHMS CARE!!

I went to this school many years ago but my mom was a stay at home mom so I was very upset to find out there is no bus for my LITTLE girl!!! Im not at all happy that a school that claims to care about our childrens safty expects a 4 feet tall,50 pound cute little girl to walk alone 3 blocks. I know its not far but in this day and age is that really a good idea?I spoke to many people about this and the only answer I get is " its always been that way" Well times have changed. I think CH needs to catch up, dont you.
