Cruickshank used to be a very good school. The teachers need to realize that parents want to help their children with their school work but we don't understand what they send home. Our sports teams lack proper coaches and uniforms. These kids will go into high school without the proper guidance needed to become a great athlete. I'm really disappointed.

Cruickshank is a very good school, yes we may have fights and a lot of problems, but one thing we don't have a problem with is pulling it together and trying our best to get up to the next grade. My teacher has read us the DMA test results from about 3 years ago and we do better than any middle school in Merced

This school has an excellent opporotunity for your student to be able to be enriched and to grow in their education. Cruickshank offers plenty of resources for your student to learn as well as make friends. The teachers and the staff are very friendly yet have the touch of discipline to make the students cooperate. The students at CMS are very mature and learn very well. The environment provided for study at CMS is superior in the fact that the teachers are very well trained and able to teach the classes.

Cruickshank is an excellent school. There is a lot of opportunities for students to do different things. The parents that are involved are a great help. If you like music you can join band. There is a newsletter that is sent home to the parents every month to give updates about the school. Everybody does a great job on cleaning the school. Classes aren't too long and they aren't too short.

Its an ok school. Though it is new, I dont like it much because of the sense of superiority of plenty of students which attend the school.

Cruikhank is a good school. They have good teachers and a good principal. It is one of the newest schools in merced and the campus is great. I would reccomend it.
