We love CMA and I can’t thank them enough for the discipline, structure and encouragement they have given my kids.
My high schooler was skipping class at Palmer and because his grades were never affected they never called me. CMA was recommended to us and I enrolled all of my kids thinking they were going to hate it. My senior has discovered his leadership skills and enlisted in the Air Force with huge dreams that he never imagined having before this. My 7th grader is discovering how much he loves to challenge himself both physically and mentally and begged us to enroll him into the Civil Air Patrol. My 6th grader is Autistic and receives everything available to him for support as well as extra attention because the classes are smaller and my 5th grader has come out of her shell and learned that she is way smarter than she thought because she gets the attention she needs to learn the lessons given. No organization can ever be perfect and there is always room for growth. CMA is great school.
For being dubbed a “military academy” it is utterly disorganized. Apart from select teachers, this place is a disaster. The school puts announcements out SUPER late (e.g. the Christmas concert was announced wicked late and the TEACHERS didn’t even know it was going on). They cancelled school for “high winds”…. huh? Granted there was a high wind warning that day, but in no way did it warrant a cancellation. The teachers are utterly disorganized with their communication, curriculums and homework structure. Is puts off the impression that everything is organized last minute. Pick up coordination is awful. The front office is unbelievably off putting. The pre-school allows tablets to be used and the room is a disaster, disorganized and my child has told me that the teacher “yells” frequently. It is clear that education is beyond the capability of this school and I would not recommend that anyone consider bringing their child here.
Like any new school, there will be a growing period. Through this time the school has had several open houses, town halls, parent teacher conferences, and is willing to listen to parents concerns. This school is definitely headed in the right direction. There are so many supporters that want to see this school, its programs, and the Cadets succeed. There are not many schools in the country that have the ability to teach their students to fly. My 7th grader has already flown twice this school year.
Every school will have its issues with bullies, troubled children, and nay sayers, but like every school, you get out of it what you put into it. That goes for both Cadets and their parents.
The commandant Colonel Roberts is doing a great job leading this school in the right direction.
