"It is our son’s first year as a student in the upper school and he is very glad to be in such a fun and interesting learning environment and is trying out new activities and sports teams too. The community of parents and students are very welcoming and the staff and teachers are wonderful. I highly recommend CBA!"

"We are extremely satisfied with the experience our daughter is having at CBA. From an educational and training point of view, the standards are extremely high. We are very satisfied with how teachers look after pupils. The programs are very varied and stimulating for the students' personal growth. The sporting activity is constant and very qualified. Go CBA!"

"We are new to CBA this year and our two kids, 2nd and 4th grade, are thriving at this school. They love the project based approach, and I love that they are being pushed outside their comfort zone and are being taught skills like public speaking and presentation. We love the focus on learning, practicing, and mastering life skills in addition to the rigorous academics. The staff at CBA from the teachers to the school nurse to the administrators are amazing. They are communicative, kind, and thoughtful in how they approach education. There are numerous opportunities to learn more about the curriculum, to see your children present at weekly family gatherings, and to volunteer to be part of the learning. We can't wait to integrate more into this community in the years to come. As a new family in the school, we were so grateful for the classroom ambassador (parents) that reached out to help us navigate our transition. Our kids had their own 'shadow' buddies which really helped build relationships early on for them and ease their anxiety about starting somewhere new."

"I was a volunteer Master Gardener today, talking about Pollinators for their Pistol Creek Day. The students were informed and they asked good questions. They were very interested and polite, soaking in the information. Thank you for educating these young people, helping to develop them into productive, concerned citizens. Go CB students!!!

"I Toured Cba a few months ago and I must say I wasn’t at all impressed. Though the staff were very courteous and polite to our tour group, they seem to treat the students (whom are paying a lot to be there) quite different. Tours are additionally not given by staff, but rather by high school students, which I don’t mind in the slightest, however it would’ve been nice to talk to more staff members regarding questions that the students giving the tour might not be able to answer. Also, while passing by the cafeteria I noticed that the food looked sub par at best, not something you anticipate from a very expensive private school. We know some family friends who have a child that had gone through Cba in the past, and they reported that the staff was indeed very disrespectful and unhelpful towards the students. While I praise the students who gave us the tour, and the overall cleanliness of the school, overall I was not impressed with this school, and would advise anyone wishing to send their child to a high end private school look elsewhere."
