I attended this school at a time and I cannot say it was great. Grant there were a few good teachers there but as far as everything overall, send your kid if you desperately have to. I'd recommend Gifford over Dearborn. Gifford was a school of mine for 7 years and its a great place for a kid to grow. I'm afraid I can't say the total same for Dearborn.

What an awesome school. The staff goes above and beyond any other school. They treat the kids with lots of understanding and positive reinforcements. This is the best school I have ever had the pleasure of dealing with

About these ratings

The Community Rating is the school’s average rating from its community members (e.g., parents, students, and school staff). The highest possible rating is five stars; the lowest is one star.

We currently do not have any test score information for this school. Unlike public schools, private schools are not always required to report data about their schools or not required to take the same tests as public schools. Many private schools take different standardized tests; however, that information is often made available only to families of enrolled students. We strive to acquire additional private school data whenever available.
