Ronald Brown is a school with a principal who is a no-nonsense, determine individual who cares a great deal about the kids at her school. Some may take her approach as too forward and strict, but I feel she is showing these kids what is to be tolerated and what is not. She also cares a great deal about what goes on at this school and it reflects in many of the teachers here as well.
This is our first year at Ronald Brown, and we truly love it here! We were not only made to feel at home, but both my children are thriving. The curriculum is challenging, but they ensure their students' needs are met in order to succeed. They have an array of actitivities and events that keep the families and staff involved. I am rating on two different ends of the spectrum, as I have a child in an advanced class and continues to make the honor roll, and I also have a child in special education, who is also thriving as well! My children will be there until they graduate!
I love Ronald Brown Academy. I have to drive my child to school cause we live over a mile away. But it's worth it. He has been there 3 years now. And he will stay there until there graduates. He has learned more there than any of my other children have at other schools in the area. No child left behind.
My daughter has attended Ronald Brown since Preschool. We are currently living out of Detroit, and I drive out of the way for her to attend Brown. We both love it. She is now in the first grade and she is reading and writing 2nd or 3rd grade level.
I love this school my child was here and played basket ball and love it
The principal is quite involved! This is a plus! Can be too Involved, to the pointe of covering up, what's really happening(learning - lack of learning or doing whatever to look good from afar.)
This school is great academically. What I like best is that they reward there students all year round which i believe is one thing that keeps these kids motivated. I would also like to compliment leadership for doing such a wonderfull job.
I Love this school!! I have 2 children who attend Ronald Brown Academy. The teachers and staff really care about educational process. I pass 2 other schools that my children could attend on the way to Ronald Brown. It's the best school in the area.
My daughter attended Ronald Brown for two years of preschool and she was very prepared, academically, for kindergarten.
