School Reviews

Our daughter attended CVMS for 5 years, beginning when she was 17 months old. She continued at CVMS through her kindergarten year. This school is simply amazing. She entered only speaking a few words and left prepared to skip a grade in school. The staff at CVMS saw her through many stages - they were able to get her talking, get her potty trained, deal with discipline issues with compassion and kindness, and they made her LOVE learning. As a small school, CVMS is able to give children the love and attention they need to flourish and thrive. The community is close-knit, and the kids make enduring friends and connections. I highly recommend this school.
