When Cab holds shows or in school performances, I love watching students of all different art majors come together to put on a great show. I also enjoy Cab's spirit week traditions which include decorating the hallways. Cab's community is relatively welcoming and also generally liberal. Cab could use greater diversity though. Regarding the staff, Cab's teachers are hit or miss. Some teachers are dedicated to their classes, while others shouldn't be paid for what little they do.
I also do not like Cab's individualistic community in that everything feels like a competition. Students take advanced classes in subjects they don't actually enjoy for the credit and join clubs to put them on their college applications. Cab also uses school rank which I think is outdated and proven to be toxic.
Overall, relatively to many other schools in the state, my experience at Cab is pretty good.

Cab Calloway School of the Arts encourages and requires students to prepare for college and life after school. Cab teaches critical thinking and creativity. Students learn how to merge their varied artistic and creative talents and interests into academics. AP classes in math, science, history and art can help students get a leg up in college. Dedicated staff is always available to help students who ask and write wonderful recommendation letters. The guidance counselors block out time to help seniors apply to school and are organized and efficient at getting each students the resources they need.
Excellent school with caring teachers. A perfect combination of an arts- centered education with rigorous academics. Great, inclusive environment as well!
