Chabot Grads Talk About Claremont

Chabot graduates attending sixth grade at Claremont Middle School want to share their opinions about Claremont:

“I think that Claremont is a good school because it has teachers who really teach you what you need to know. It isn’t a rowdy school. In math we are learning about integers, and we’ve already learned multiplying and dividing fractions and decimals. In history, we are learning about Mesopotamia, and have learned about archeological teams and have done hands-on projects and drawings. Claremont’s almost like Chabot except bigger. Claremont has special classes for people with different needs, so the classes are just right for everybody. I think it’s just as good as Chabot.”

“I know that a lot of people are probably having doubts about sending their children to Claremont. But we do good things and do lots of nice work and fun projects and take fun field trips. They even took us to the movies! The teachers are all good and teach well. My favorite subject is Spanish. In Spanish you learn a lot of things to say like how to tell time, how do say what you love, dislike, or like, how to say months and days of the week, how to ask to go to the bathroom, see the nurse, go to the office, or get a drink of water, and a lot of other things. Most of the people who go there are nice. It’s a good school and I really like it there.”

“Claremont is a place where you can feel comfortable in class. The teachers teach you what you want to know. The teachers are always willing to help you, and there are lots of opportunities to get tutored if you are behind in your work. Gym is fun, and it gets you into better shape. In science you do fun projects and it helps you understand better why things happen on Earth. At the beginning of the year you are tested on your skills on different subjects, so they know what class to put you in. The students are friendly and nice.”
