I wish you would take another look at CMS. The staff has worked hard to turn the school around. While not perfect and always a work in process, there is now a brand new school with evolved safety, a new community schools program, an emphases on equity and inclusion and an evolving alternative to suspensions program that emphasizes community and belonging strategies. There is also a beautiful garden developing with a funded program for its use that the students and community participate in.There is an elementary school, Rodeo hills, which is in Rodeo and attached to this District. The entire district has been working extensively on all of the strategies above for several years. Unfortunately change comes slow, but we are evolving.

My grandkids have no Science Classs at Grade 3? His Math has no mastery of multiplication nor division. Best part is the free lunch & summer school help them a bit. No bully experience with my grandson, once with my granddaughter but later became friends with the boy.

my children went to Catholic private elementary and middle schools so this was our first real experience of public school. We did an out of district transfer to John swett school district based on the high rating this school was getting. My child was very nervous in the first week but two years on, i can tell you it was the best decision i made. The teachers are dedicated and fun. Admin headed by a very motivated principal are courteous and helpful. Discipline is quite amazingly implemented.I would recommend this school to anyone who does not want to pay close to $65,000 for four years of private high school and still get a wonderful education for their kids.
