8/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating Averageas a former Blandford school student, my experience was amazing. the only way to fully understand the greatness of this program is to experience it. the teachers push you to your limits and beyond. blandford is the place that I met my 5 best friends, and we are still as close as ever. the way they slip nature into the daily learning is simply amazing. I love when we went into the woods and learned about everything around us. sometimes we would even go out there to have a conversation about math! the teachers create a friendly environment for the kids, while making it easy for us to respect them. I loved every minute of it, even when I was struggling a bit. I hope that this post may convince you to let your child go on to what I thought of as the best experience of my life.Other Review13y ago4 Reviews - John Ball Park Zoo School

8/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThe metrics on this school are not as straightforward. As I imagine is the case for many schools that are on this website. In regards to the large gap between test scores and progress, students have a test score requirement to apply. As for progress, our personal experience saw exceptional progress, though not necessarily in test scores. Our student learned how to manage multiple projects with varying deadlines, work with a team, and how to study independently. Also, the metric on teacher to student ratio is off. There are two teachers that teach 2 subjects each and they work with half of the students at a time. The students rotate classrooms. Please do not take these scores at face value. There is so much learning and progress happening at John Ball Park Zoo School. Reach out to the school, or a parent or even a former Zooie themselves. Highly recommend this program.Parent Review3y ago2 Reviews - Cesar E. Chavez Elementary

5/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageAt Union High School we have lots of supports for students and lots of opportunities to learn. We have expanded our AP course offerings and after school clubs and activities. Union is a very safe school with good procedures and we have reduced out of school suspensions by more than half over the last few years. Union is a great place to teach and learn. Most of the information on this website if incorrect or out of date. I hope parents and others who read this information realize this and take a closer look at Union High as an option.Teacher Review1y ago11 Reviews - City High Middle School

9/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThey care about your grades rather than your mental health. I was in the worst place of my life, I failed on a test, and I explained this to my teacher, that I had too much homework every day and that I have a disability to concentrate, and after all of that, she just simply said, “Well, welcome to city.” No retakes, help in the future, nothing. And that’s one of my teachers. Save yourself your mental health, and don’t go to this school. This was made February 4, 2023, sophomore. Two years at city.Student Review2y ago6 Reviews - Grand Rapids University Preparatory Academy

They don’t give enough support to the students that need it in my opinion. The teachers aren’t nice though and can be fun.
