"CMJH has many expectations for their students, and their expectations are higher than most other public schools I have been to. If you're one of those students who struggles with more difficult classes, you might have some troubles with this school. If you're one of those students who are independently able to get great grades, you will do just fine at this school and will be prepared for High School. From my experiences, some of the children attending CMJH have harrassed and bullied others. Though, it is continually reminded throughout the school that bullying and harassing is not the right type of behavior. Theres also a program (first started by a student who was affected last year) that reminds 8th graders to stop bullying and harrassing 7th graders. I think it has worked very well so far. In addition, the principal was awarded a Principal of the Year award last year, which is pretty impressive since the award was out of all the Principals in the state. Theres also some pretty good classes for both 7th and 8th graders, especially the art classes. The teachers are cooperative most of the time, and the most of them are friendly and laid back. This school rocks."

"I had an amazing time at CMJH, although some things were a little sketchy. The math program is satisfactory, the English is excellent, science is unsatisfactory, PE is above average, World Geography is average/below average, German was excellent, & Tech SWAMP was absolutely excellent. I wish I could go back to this school. There are some drug problems, but you can immediately tell who is best to be around, just by looks. I would definitely recommend this school to anyone for 7th grade."

"I have had two children at the Junior High and it's been a frustrating and disappointing experience both times. The teachers seem to resist any parent interaction; I wasn't notified that my child may possibly have to repeat the year because she is failing an art class until 3 weeks before the end of the semester. The Principal is primarily concerned with the teachers and their well-being and was defensive rather than interested in my child's welfare in meetings. The counselors are helpful but can only do so much in the face of the adversity presented by the Administration. Be prepared to be your child's only advocate."

"I keep my daughter in this school district because it is one of highest rated school districts and has the best programs of any school district in town. What I have found after having being in this district for 5 years is that most of the parents are older and/or stay at home and able focus on their child s progress 100%. Smart as my child may be she struggles at this school severely. They have no policy, special classes or communicate with parents to help struggling children. They are only allowed to fail one class a year or they will be held back. I would not suggest this school for anyone whose child is not an advanced independent learner."
