I was a student here for all 7 years of my middle and high school education. Worst 7 years of my…read morelife. I was treated so poorly by both students and faculty, and every report I made to the admins was thrown in the garbage. I have epilepsy as well as some other significant medical problems. I was called every slur under the sun, kids would flash lights at me and shine laser pointers in my eyes, try and steal the stuff from my bag, or just straight up tell me I should kill myself because of how "sick" and stupid I am. The parents who volunteered at the school treated me better than any member of staff here. Now my teachers: In my junior year, I had a seizure in my math class. I woke up to a megaphone in my face with my teacher yelling at me to wake up. I was on the FLOOR. THE FLOOR. She also took the device I had managing my heart monitor, because it was a "phone". Said device was not allowed to be more than 6 feet away from me at a time, and I had CLEAR documentation on this. Another one was my history teacher, googling verbatim "how to find a rich husband" and "do pretty women have more advantage in life" while connected to the SMART Board. Last one, my personal favorite! I had an ambulance called on me for a seizure. I was still in postictal state, and my mother had arrived, obviously very distressed. He had the balls to tell my mom I was faking my seizures. How can you say that about someone's kid to their mom's face? It makes me sick. No actions were ever taken for the countless reports and witness statements I put in through administration. I was lied to and told something will be done for sure, and that my concerns were important to them. Funny joke! Don't even get me started on the mental health aspect of this either. I was so fucking drained and deprived of any sort of emotion, and received no support when I asked for it. Instead, they threatened my parents with CPS because they believed I belonged in a mental facility, despite me already being medicated and having the doctors I need. Don't send your kids here. Good riddance.

Ok, I'm not a student or a teacher at Cuthbertson but I did visit it to purchase greenhouse plants…read more The main entrance is impressive. Brought me back to Kennedy Center's Hall of Nations with all the colorful flags hanging. The receptionist helped me find my way to the greenhouse n I could see security is absolutely present which is a good thing with all the firearms violence happening in the news. Drove around to the well stocked greenhouse thanks to its major contributing teacher who probably supports the FFA (Future Farmers of America) with his paycheck. I must remember to start potting plants now for next year's spring sale to share my overflow to help out. Anyway, the FFA Plant Sale was posted on the Nextdoor Neighborhood app (kind of late in the sale) by probably a parent of a student. For the FFA sale, the greenhouse is manned by a student. I hv to remember to check the school's website for the start of the sale to get annual plants earlier next year. I love the colorful zinnias which I bought a whole bunch! In fact, I bought lots of other stuff too...even small ficus trees for my upstairs sunny room. After the shopping, I saw the tennis courts n they're in great shape n open (I think) to the public not like MR High's sadly. MR is closer than Cuthbertson but Cuthbertson is my area's high school. The building spread of Cuthbertson seems much more welcoming than MR's exterior view. I hv yet to explore MR. I only know it from driving past its two exposed sides (football field and a closed in tight spread of a few buildings). My friend's 8th & 9th graders seem to be doing well there. My neighbor's kids next door use to go to MR b4 redistricting n they love Cuthbertson more than their experience in MR but I know ea year's batch of students/experiences differ. I think tho if I were able to choose by simply the exterior I'd go to Cuthbertson. Now as far as curriculum that's a whole different thing to consider but since I don't know both can't comment.

CLS is a great place to get an education…read more Yes - the tuition is HEFTY (but about the same as Country Day and Providence Day) and - as a result - most of the student body is very very affluent. There is some diversity - but obviously not as much as some of the public schools. It is a place where students really do know their teachers, and teachers DEFINITELY know the students - you get individual attention at all levels - I feel totally comfortable calling any teacher to get feedback on my kids. Students feel very comfortable - and safe - in the classroom and on the campus. Speaking of the campus - it is beyond beautiful. Prettier than most colleges. Great classrooms, great learning environment. Great environment for the arts. Great (unbelievable) athletic facilities. Since the student body is small - everyone is involved in something - and more are involved in several "things". Not unusual to have a football athlete in a musical, the editor of the poetry journal involved in a sport, and the debate team, etc. Yes the students can be portrayed as "entitled". Hey - at $20k/year - their parents have invested a lot of money in their educations - and probably have money for 2nd homes, luxury cars, vacations, etc. School tries to emphasize community service, diversity programs, and giving back. However - the kids attitudes are formed at home for the most part - don't blame the school if kids appear to be spoiled - blame the parents. I seriously evaluated taking my kids out of CLS for high school and putting them in the neighborhood public school. I actually did some substitute teaching in the upper school - and found the students polite, respectful, and (gasp) actually interested in learning. It's a place where it is cool to be smart, be artistic, be an athlete, perform community service, understand the news, be a science nerd, and to be involved. One of my kids is in college - and said that she does feel that CLS gave her an advantage in college because "she knew how to write, how to study, how to plan, and how/when to ask for help".
