Grand Blanc Academy

Our son attended GBA for three years. The first two years were decent as he had excellent teachers. The final year '10-'11 was an awful experience. Our son floundered academically so badly we choose to hold him back a year and change schools. He came home in tears amost daily. He was bullied and physically attacked. No child should come home with marks on his body due to adults not supervising and seperating students appropriately. Often he told us how students had threatened to bring weapons to school and stab, kill, or shoot him. Communication for '10-'11 was horrid. In our situation there were two parents begging the school to pick up the phone and call, send home notes, send smoke signals, anything. Our son didn't ride the bus so one of us was physically there twice a day asking what we could do to help, make things easier, work on at home, etc. and we were still ignored. GBA does have some amazing people working there but the bad oversight, failing test scores, and unsafe environment ruin the school. P.S. Since leaving, our son is getting straight A's and has had no issues.

Stop in to see the changes! Grand Blanc Academy has a wonderful culture of family and community. We now have Big Yellow Busses safer and no change in monthly rate! Student Achievement is on the rise and we are ready to take on the 2011-2012 school year!

Grand Blanc Academy is an awesome school! I enrolled my daughter in kindergarten at this school and she has had an incredible experience so far. The staff is very caring and always accomodating and the new principal is FANTASTIC! I would highly recomend this school to any interested parent.

After 3 academic years of greatness. I decided not to send my children back due to the fact of the lack of supervision that can lead to bullying,which led to a few fights! They dont watch the kids that close there to busy talking! Not to mention the facet no sports!

My children have been at Grand Blanc Academy 3 years. They have changed a few ways they do academic testing. Which my kids did well no matter what. But as far as after school programs, transportation, and bullying they suck. So if u have k-6 grade students sent them to one of your local elementry buildings if u can .
