I do not feel this school is all it's cracked up to be. For one, having studied the test scores over the years it's evident that the elementary is carrying the middle school. Why is it that the 6-8th grade scores are so poor? They are the same kids who went there in elementary. The principals need to worry more about what's going on in the classroom and less about socializing with staff and parents. It greatly disappoints me that I'll have to move my daughter for middle school, possibly even 5th. Test scores do not give the whole picture, but with students like the ones Cubberley gets, the scores should be better. The kids deserve the same education others are getting just a few miles up the road.
This school has great kids and fun teachers that make my children's learning fun and exciting! Although this school is in desperate need of money that doesn't stop them from teaching to their fullest
This is a phenomenal school. My husband and I purchased a home in our neighborhood because it is within 'Cubberley' boundaries. As far as fundraising goes - PTA has no choice but to fundraise all the time. The amount of money a school receives from the State is coorelated to the number of students a school has on free/reduced rate lunches. To put it bluntly... Cubberley does not have very many of these students, and the State does not send Cubberley as much money as schools in lower socio-economic areas. Without fundraising money, Cubberley would not be able to provide the extras we as parents have all come to expect from the schools we send out children to. With regard to the rigor at Cubberley - I am very pleased. When my children leave Cubberley, I know they will be well prepared for high school and whatever lies ahead of them.
