Open Quote Great school with proven results. Teachers are second to none. Brings up home values significantly. Keep up the great work CHMS! Close Quote

Open Quote School caters to teachers without regard to students, student performance or achievement. Unfortunately administration is managed by teachers and teachers seem to have greater interest in how they look than how they teach.

Case in point - student with A's in all but one course. When inquired of teacher how to improve AP math from B to A student recieved response, "you might consider moving down a level." Insane - rather than transferring to alternate AP math (cause student and parents advised of auditory problem understanding South African teacher) teachers at first, on very first inquiry suggest demoting student. After all discovery, Administration says . . . can't transfer to alternate AP math during same period because it makes my statistics look bad - can't justify it.

Bottom line - student went down level in math after feeling totally betrayed and degraded. At end of year student scored in 98th Percentile on EOG - higher than most AP Math students - despite the discouragement of teachers and administrators.

Result - Mecklenburg lost an all "A" performing, interested student cause Administration doesn't care. Student now an all "A" student at private school. Close Quote
