this is a school full of wonderful students who are wiling to learn and everyone i know wants to attend this school
This school relies heavily on memoratization and rote learning. It employs little creativity and turns out little robots. The headmaster hasn't had a new idea in about 50 years. No parental involvement. Beautiful campus but no soul.
Each year, more and more students arrive and make wonderful contributions to our already talented and diverse student body. Last year the school hosted four foreign exchange students, from the Ukraine, Brazil, and South Korea respectively. Classes are still small however, so the student gets the maximum amount of attention they require, and the student-teacher relationship is kept close. Last years' High School production of A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court was a huge success, and the choirs and ensemble performed several times. We now also have several varsity sports teams, and I love that each girl participates on an interscholastic team, whether varsity or not. As a parent I am wholly satisfied with Southfield, as is my daughter.
Southfield is a great school that has a traditional curriculum of three years of Latin starting in 6th grade and offers French and Spanish. Southfield has been a great experience for my daughter and still is today. She likes her teachers and has excelled well. This school also offers a wonderful science program.
