Culver City Middle School has a lot of extracurricular classes. The Drafting Class is very exceptional. I have heard that they are doing college-level work in that class. The teachers make everything about learning fun!

My daughter excels at CCMS. Her GPA is 3.8 and on her way up. The teachers are ok there if your child does well, however, if your child needs extra help, then you are in trouble. I attended this school district beginning in 1968, and it has always been they treat the more advanced students with clout

I am in 8th grade now and have wanted to find a new school since the middle of sixth grade. Academically, its an average school- you only exceed if your in scholars classes. The staff is unhelpful- the counselors don't help and the office workers are rude. They took out most of the afterschool activities

I have never heard of any major problems at the school; it certainly is not any kind of 'juvenile hall.' The school takes its 'zero tolerance' policy very seriously. I have always found the office staff to be very friendly and personable. There are many free academic and creative programs available to students both before and after school. It is up to the students as well as parents to take advantage of the opportunities available. Read less

The only thing good about this school is the principal, he is awesome. But the office staff are distant and hostile. Very demeaning when your child is tardy. My daughters counselor was decent as well. Security guards are egotistical. Sometimes it can seem like juvenile hall.

I went from a 2.0 GPA to a 3.5 in a matter of months! In all honesty, SOME of the teachers are too hard on the students, but most of
