Well i have attended 1 1/2 year in CJHS and awaiting 8th grade year. CJHS is a very good school. Good grades and simply doing your very best is widely accepted in CJHS by teachers, students, ect.:)
—Submitted by a student


Posted October 12, 2004

It was a pleassure to attend CJHS. Giving myself as an example I now attend college to soon become an educator and I now recognize what a good teacher is like. Personally I believe CJHS has the right teachers, talented and with high expectations of their students which at the end the outcome is great. Students build high self-esteem that students do use in future careers like in my personal experience.

The teachers really care about the children at CJHS. They teach what they love and put everything into the job. One of the most wonderful feelings to have as a parent is the knowledge that your children will be safe, educated and cared for in a school. What a delight to have these teachers educate my children.
