This seems to be the most current review of my school. Let me tell you, Oxford is great. I am a freshman and have 2 AP classes I can take and 3 different languages (Spanish, Chinese, and Sign Language). The teachers come from around the world and are very easy to understand (when you ask). It is ranked one of the top schools in michigan by Local 4. I love it here.
Plays, music, sports, technical, languages, orchestra, they have it all. Plus the teachers really care and go the extra mile for their students.
The school is extreammly nice but some of it's rules are crazy
I think Oxford is a wonderful school district. It is not tense atmosphere like other districts I have been involved with. They have an outstanding special-needs department, offer many AP courses, and have always improved my child's strengths while building up his problem areas. It is true that the only language offered is Spanish. However, there are four high school teachers available; a concern at other schools. Oxford has a language program starting in elementary school, which is rare elsewhere. Oxford also has an excellent music department which is very active and wins many awards.
I would never recomend this school district to any one. No matter how pretty the building looks we are worse than any other district that I know of. The teachers do not care about your student and the teachers abuse their power over the students in this school and they collect a paycheck without educating the child. I have had no results with any teacher or principle that I have taken my concerns to and they play politics with the family. We have spent millions of dollars on the High School, zero dollars on education and over payed these teachers who are under zealous and need a attitude adjustment. unless your child is a honor student by nature. If your child needs to be taught it will not happen here you are on your own and you need to run in a different direction fast...
I am ashamed that this school offers a lacking circulumn. They do not have many AP classes, only one foreign language (Spanish), and not many computer classes. Many of the other schools nearby offer more classes to choose from. This school is however very nice inside and is a great school. Overall I think your child would be better at another school with more courses to offer.
I graduated from Oxford High School, in 2002. I thought that this school did a great job in meeting my expectations. They took the time to help the students who needed extra help, while treating them like everyone else. I would love to have my children go to this school. Going to Oxford made my high school career enjoyable. It was the best time of my life.
I am currently attending this school as a senior. I believe that it is a great school. It has provided me with many opportunites to learn. I have made many friends, and the teachers are wonderful.
