Our son is in his 3rd year of the elementary program at CMS, and we believe beyond a doubt that he is getting an exceptional education. We have seen him blossom both academically and socially. We chose private over public school so our son would have the opportunity to advance academically at his speed and not be limited, for the low student-teacher ratio CMS provides, and for the feeling of a caring community of students, teachers, and parents. CMS has not disappointed us. In fact, we plan to stay through upper elementary which is something we had not intended to do originally. It is a well-rounded program that strives for academic excellence while also emphasizing educating the whole child- one that is socially responsible, an independent and confident learner, a good public-speaker, caring about fellow students, and respectful. CMS offers experiential learning in the indoor classroom, the outdoor classroom (their amazing garden), through their global classroom (their new Spanish Internet Pen Pal Program with their partner school in Honduras) and through awesome curriculum-enhancing field trips. After looking around at the cost of other private schools, CMS is a true gem!
