[quote=Anonymous]CMI MS has a visual arts room but visual arts is only a part of the curriculum. It is twice a week, of which science is a small part. The students use microscopes similar one DC has at home (and got at age 6 or 7). Then they just write down what they see. It is not a formal science curriculum. There is no homework, no textbooks (the math is copied sheets sent home), no tests, and no grades. It is just the first month but students are not being academically challenged. I like the critical thinking skills but they need to add some critical knowledge skills too. I hope to see textbooks, homework, and high-level science and math. STEAM was the selling point of CMI MS and it is a minor part of the school day.[/quote]
