Cross Keys Middle School

The Principal (Ms. Martin) and Assistant Principal (Mr. Wright) have been amazing with assisting the children and addressing parent concerns. They take the time to involve themselves with each kid in their care. They know student by name and can also speak directly with parents concerning the needs of their individual student without having to consult with the teacher or look in a file. They team with teachers to provide them with support as well. They also have different hands on programs to assist children who are struggling with different subjects or assessments. They make these children feel elite and special, as oppose to approaching them as failing and unresponsive children. They are very hands on and it shows in how the kids light up when they see them. The office staff are a bit challenging though, some days they are friendly, other days not so much. Communication is a bit abrasive but I don’t think it’s meant in a malicious manner. They also make it a point to know students by name and assist them as well. Their passion shows through from that perspective. Overall, Commons Lane is a great school for students to excel in learning with a touch of the nurturing care they are custom to receiving at such a young age.

Mr. Webb is the best teacher. He cares so much about each and every child and goes above and beyond to help them.He is very organized and structured. Any child would benefit from being in his class.

My son was enrolled in Coldwater from kindergarten through 4th school was great until we came back from covid with new principles. The assistant principal denied my son his inhaler causing him to have to go to the ER and miss several days of school. He was bullied all year long and was attacked by the same student several times. I did not feel my child was safe at this school so ultimately I made the decision to move out of the schools boundaries and put my child in a different district. The teachers were amazing but the principles were horrible! I recommend avoiding this school if at all possible.

Kids safety this school is terrible when your kids get bullied the teacher and principal dont do nothing and dont care about your child well being. Bullies gonna get there lil assess kick messing with my son!!!!!!!!!!!!

This school is terrible my cousin goes here and this school is so painful with the students and drama and work is getting just overall behind in 3rd i was writing paragraphs and they just started in 5th actually writing paragraphs. 1 star

The school has had many changes in staff over the years. The school has not been the same since Mr. Moor (Previous Principal) left. The Teacher's don't seem to care about the student's. Communication from Teacher's and the current Principal are poor. Children are disciplined for petty things but big issues, like student's falling behind academically are overlooked. The curriculum is not challenging and Teacher's are stuck in the traditional catholic teaching style. Not worth paying for.
