(5 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - I love that my student is attending Curtis Jr. High.. Wonderful staff, atmosphere for the students is fantastic. Always greeted w/ a smile if I need to stop in. Here pleasure in my students tone when she comes home and speaks about her teachers. She gets right on homework and looks forward to the next day of school. Top rated to us!
