Very happy children and hardworking staff. One of the best schools I have interacted with.

I graduated Bridgman High School in 2014 and I loved my class and teachers. I also attended RMS (Bridgman's middle school) and Bridgman Elementary School. The teachers are always willing to help whether it be questions in class or taking time after school to answer any questions. The teachers are all very kind and equal to all students but they are not push overs and they can tell when students aren't preforming well. They know each student by name and many students still stay in contact with the administration after graduating. The students are welcoming and accepting of all people. Bullying isn't a problem here and if there was if you report it the principal and staff will confront it head on. The sports are great here and the coaches care about how well you do in the classroom before you hit the field/court/pool. And the classes are small enough so that teachers can individually help students who need attention. They also have great programs for advanced students such as AP courses and help for students with disabilities such as autism, dyslexia, or students who are just a little slow to learn. All in all it's a great school.

I was a current student in FC Reed and I would not recommend this school. In my time at this school I had not seen the pretty FC Reed that everyone sees it as. I was bullied multiple times and I went to trusted facility members and nothing was done. I was the one being told to stop being dramatic. I was bullied so much that my parents had got very involved. Did anything happen, no. While the bullying goes on, Vaping and drugs were done through the school. Students learned how to get around the vape detectors and were not stopped. Another thing is if your child has asthma I would not recommend this school. I have been diagnosed with asthma. This may be seen as normal but teens would spray perfume and cologne all throughout the hallways while people who suffer from asthma had to deal with the fumes. I had to deal with this. It has gotten so bad with the sprays that I missed three days of school because I couldn't breath. Teachers sprayed aerosol which even worsend the problem. Nothing was done to stop perfume and cologne spraying after so many complaints from many families. Another thing I would like to point out is the way the teachers treated the students. One teacher body shamed a kid in my class and nothing was done. Teachers would even say how certain classes were horrible and how it's our faults that there day was ruined. There is so much more this school has done that has been covered by the academic success. I would not recommend this school for you child.
