School Reviews
5 3/17/2009
I had three children go through CY Junior High and receive a middle level education second to none. I would highly recommend this school to ANYONE undecided about where to place their children in grades 6-9. They were active in many activities and successful in all. Great teachers. Great environment. The ninth grade awards each spring saw my children recognized over and over. They mattered and they felt they mattered.
