Angela A.: Overall, CMB is a great school with a highly respected principal and a dedicated staff. The school is always clean, which gives the students a clean atmosphere to learn in. My only concern would be the curriculum for each grade level, some of the work seems to be quite "easy" for the specifc grade level. In order for students to learn and want to continue to learn, they need to be challenged every once in awhile. I realize students are not all on the same level even if they are in the same classroom, which is why the teachers may consider putting students in groups where their peers are within their same skill level.
