Have had a great experience with CMS. Great communication, caring staff and administration, ample extra-curricular opportunity.

I didn't really like this school. On my sons first day Teachers weren't very welcome. I didn't like the fact that teachers/staff treated students different from each other. For example teachers/staff treated ''popular people'' different from others. They let them off easy and treated them very different. Also some teachers at this school was very rude and unkind. But there is some nice teachers at this school as well. Many students are very mean to each other.. My son was never safe at school and didn't like there was so much Mean people He saids. A reason I didn't like this school is because the the clothing rules Here was Just meaningless. This is the biggest part I took my kids out of this school. If your looking to put your kid In this school wouldn't.

My son does well academically here, but he did well in his last school district. Disappointed in this school, not very welcoming. Got misinformation from day one when registering my son as a new student and even cut our out of state trip short as a result. Would not let my son start school on time (as a new student this was very frustrating for him), staff not friendly at all when coming to visit school. Had trouble setting up appointment for my son because emails/calls were answered, but were never followed through with and seem more interested in sports than a child's academics. A few amazing teachers, but the districts my children have attended before were very welcoming and inviting, much more communication was involved, and more focus was given to academics than sports. Biggest disappointment, NO 8th grade moving up ceremony! Hoping to commute my next son to Chehalis Middle School.
