Both of my boys went to Dutchtown for Middle and High School. Both are AMAZING!!

I love it at Dutchtown! I'm currently a sophmore, and the majority of my teachers have all been absolutely amazing and supportive. They really care about your success and want to help however they can. The club experiences are also really good. I'm in the Spanish and Be The Change club, and both are extremely inclusive and just fun in general. There are so many opportunities and programs to be a part of, and its just a fun place to be.

Spanish Lake Primary is not a good school anymore They allow bullies, girls and boys, to roam the halls without any consequences. Physical harm and verbal insults are not dealt with at all. Teachers and administrations do try to fix it or handle the bullies. They try to ignore it and say there is nothing they can do. You are a school. You can do something. You don’t want to do anything. I now understand why young teen suicide is increasing in schools. The teacher smile in your face or avoid the conversation and want you to get over it. Dont send you kids here. Pick a house that is not zoned for Spanish Lake Primary.Spanish Lake Primary has an A rating but they are not a good school for learning. They do not teach. They test. They lie about homework. They lie about helping students learn. They gossip. They are the CYB school. They don’t investigate or try to improve anything. Kids will make it to college and flunk out because they do not teach. Spanish Lake has gone down hill since the new principal took over. It has nothing to do with COVID. COVID was the excuse to do less and not more. COVID is how they excuse what they do not do. Spanish Lake Primary should be monitored and investigated. An A rating means nothing. Speak to the parents of every grade, speak to Spanish and English parents about Spanish Lake Primary, the skeletons will start to show. I am a former teacher and a product of public education. It is sad to see how much Spanish Lake has fallen and the lies they tell to keep the good school story going.
