Great school, 2 kids attended Curtis and both did well and continue to do well because of the work done by teachers preparing them for future studies. Being involved with the school and staff makes a difference! Would highly recommend Curtis as place for your kids education path and also solicit your involvement with what goes on at the school.

I'm not all to sure about this school .my daughter started really well at this school but towards the end if her first year she did poorly. She would blame it on her teachers but what kid dosent . yet again I get a lot of support fromvthe magnet coordinator and keeps my spirits up but yet I really dont think this school has anything good to offer.

I attended this school for two years. The teachers are very rude. Over the two year period I encountered two teachers that truly tried to get me on the right track but the rest were always late so we would have to stay in the hallways and wait for them to show up. Some would constantly stay on there phone and if we as students needed help we weren't able to bother them. The teachers never have control over the class. The students don't respect the teachers. And their office admission has gotten so small over the years which makes it harder for them to assist you. The nurse is never there. Bullying was a HUGE problem at that school and no one ever did anything about it. I personally felt that the magnet coordinator from (2012-2013) was out to get me. He would pick on me for the smallest of things. I felt victimized. This school was one the worst experiences ever. Don't send your child here.

Curtiss middle school is a horrible school in my opinion. The teachers do not care for are best interest,they will tell you the material and then its over! If you don't understand it o well that's how they think. I came to Curtiss for 7th grade as a honor student now I'm not..this school is ghetto and bad. Not only are some of the classrooms are filthy!! Some of the teachers are crazy and act very immature instead of acting like an adult!! You might find 2 good teachers out of the school who actually care buht in my opinion that's not enough..please reconsider your thoughts if your thinking about sending your child here..
