our school is a wonderful & kind environment, all of our teachers are great. We have music, art,gym & library weekly. They have a great PTA and strong parent involvement. Our principal Mrs.Rader is a very kind & wonderful person, who somehow knows every child and most parents in her school. We have a pretty healthy lunch menu, Ice cream on Fridays, and nice breakfeasts too. The children are always being challenged and as needed given adujsted work , so no one falls behind and no one sits bored, Our school is wonderful.

My son is in Kindergarten this year and has already been taught adding and subtracting in Math and knows the difference in Upper and Lower Case letter in reading/writing. He is reading key words and can also write them. The teacher is also exposing the kids to Science and History. I am very impressed with the curriculum. The principal is all over the school and is very hands on. The kids are safe and in a nurturing environment where everyone knows who they are and are better able to help them in any way that they can.

This is a typical hick school with no money to pay for decent administrators or teachers who might be able to come up with a halfway decent curriculum. My son is in third grade and just now- halfway through the school year- learning cursive! That is unacceptable. Kids at this school are light years behind kids in Detroit suburban schools, and I think it's a shame. People in this area need to grow out of the weeds, pave the streets, and start paying some taxes for a good school system.

An absolute wonderful school. Caring teachers and staff. We travel over an hour a day so that my daughter can attend this school instead of Pontiac schools and it is well worth it. They all care for the children and my daughters grades and learning experience is greatly improving.
