The princible has lie about not wanting my son who has a disability there does not want to work with him at all I have gotten phone calls every day it's sad that act like it was to much for them. I moved in the area and my kids are not use to Spanish but yea this is their home school it's sad how bad Lansing school has become

As a guest teacher, I am highly impressed with Wexford standards and Montessori learning. I have been I over 100 classrooms in Ingham county and would recommend this school out of any, including, Holt, Okemos, East Lansing and more. It would be privilege to get this type of education.

Our child has been at Colt for preschool and kindergarten, and we've had a great experience. Preschool here was more affordable than other schools at the time we started, and the instruction was great as far as we are concerned. Our child learned everything we would expect them to academically, and grew in social skills as well. We were able to start with half day preschool and transition to full day halfway through the year, which we appreciated. I love that my child was able to transition to kindergarten with the familiarity of the same school, familiar staff, and peers. I am very impressed with my child's academic progress in kindergarten. We have read books daily at home for years, but not worked a ton on letter sounds. Adding this in at school this year has our child reading simple stories! We see their teacher every day at dismissal, so there is opportunity to connect if needed. Classroom seating is changed every couple weeks so everyone gets to know each other, and I see the school making a real effort to teach social emotional skills as well. Overall great experience so far. I would love to see more parent involvement with PTO, but I expect most families have two working parents/coparents, which can make after school commitments challenging. One of the special education teachers oversees PTO presently, while helping to engage more parents to take the lead. Talk about a dedicated staff member. We appreciate all staff who we've always observed interacting with kindness and creating a welcoming environment. It's great to see the racial diversity at dropoff and pickup as well. We appreciate this being the norm for our children.

New Covenant Christian School offers high-quality academics, prepares students very well for college, and is more of a family environment than an institution. Its student body and staff are very diverse economically & ethnically, celebrating differences and our commonality as children of God! The staff at this school care deeply about the success of each student, and are teaching at this school because they believe in the mission here and care about the students and their unique interests and abilities. Much of the success of this school is due to the parents being very involved and "linking arms" with the teachers & staff in support and service to the children.

Last year was my daughter’s first year at GLAS. She was a transfer from Holt Public School District where she was bullied. She is also a student who requires extra help due to learning disabilities and being low vision. In one year she went from a second grade reading level to a fifth grade reading level. The classroom sizes are much smaller but they are also combined classrooms so they get the opportunity to hear and learn information from multiple grades at the same time as for instance 6, 7 and part of the 8th grade class are taught together. I wish I would have started her there as mom wanted from the beginning. It is well worth the money. And they will work with you on the financial side.

Total chaos. Parents don't get notified when field trips go an hour over the time they are supposed to. Awful experience.
