We have done private school and homeschooling and our kids are very far ahead. We have been at CMS 2 years and I cannot say enough good things about the Staff - fantastic! 5th grade is kept apart almost like they are in their own school - no migling with upper grades. Each grade has it's own house the is separate. Math is differenitated with is a benefit for high and low students and they are working hard at new ways to challenge high kids. Every teacher we have had has been outstanding. Music program is best around - this year 180 kids out of 240 or so are in band. Choir is a highlight (even for boys)! PE is something we hear about nightly (today we played the funnest game ever mom)! Honestly, I feel like we should send a check to the schoo - we are so lucky to have found Waconia!! Kids are great too - so respectful! There are still a few problem kids but there are just a few compared to other schools - and the teachers handle problems immediately. Truly cannot say enough good things.
My school is awesome, the classes are good, the teachers keep you focused and there are a lot of extra curricular to chose from, I know I love it...
Excellent school with caring teachers. Limited programs for gifted & talented kids. However, we've found most teachers very willing to challenge those kids. Somewhat limited sports & activities, but no experience is needed to make the team. You won't find nicer kids and teachers anywhere!
