My son is a current student here. They do not treat their minority students equal. I have a friend who son teacher didn’t even know he had an attention disorder till she brought it up to the teacher. The school ESP and school board blamed her for the teacher not knowing. My son experience at this school has been nothing short of horrible. There are other parents there who have also contacted other school districts to get their children out. Livonia public schools has not changed since I was a student there.

I wish more parents would write updated reviews because this school is a complete joke. They refuse to give my daughter an IEP because of attendance, even though her attendance issues are part of her struggles and are connected to her diagnosis.The new psychologist is very rude and undermining. She talks down to parents, belittles them, and doesn't want to hear what is really happening. There seems to be a refusal to give many students IEPs. There are about six families at just our bus stop complaining about the same issue.The PTA is boring, and there are no fun field trips. I emailed my daughter's teacher several times asking how she was doing and how she felt she had progressed on her i-Ready scores, but I never received a response.Don't think about posting a complaint about the school or issues with a teacher on the Livonia Schools Facebook page, because they know exactly who you are and will treat you with disrespect.This school is not about the kids. Make sure to tell your kids not to even try their best on state testing, and vote no on millages!

St Michael is a supportive community that graduates young men and women with a high moral fiber and the ability to succeed post 8th grade. Continuously I hear from kids who leave the school that "high school is so easy" or teachers of those students that "I knew this was a St. Michael graduate". My child was recently accepted into a competitive magnet program and their grade school education here is the primary reason. Catholic identity is a core foundation and they partner with the homes to catechized our children. To live out the faith, the school actively participates in local charities.Like most private schools, they don't have the resources to support all types learning disabilities but they do support many, such as dyslexia.

My children went to this school. They loved it and looked forward to going to school every day. They always wanted me to take them to school early so they could see their friends. If they needed help on their homework, they could always count on receiving help from their teachers. Their education at Peace taught them how to succeed in high school and college. The teachers always went above and beyond to help our children. It was a wonderful family atmosphere and experience. Everyone here was very helpful and kind. All the children in every grade got along great with each other. A child in second grade asked my child in 8th grade if he would like to come to his birthday party. He did, and they all had a great time. It was truly a wonderful experience for everyone in my family. My son received a four-year full scholarship to go to college because his grades were very good. I believe that achievement was attributed to the education he received here at Peace Lutheran Church and School. Thank you and God Bless everyone who works now or who has worked in the past at Peace. You are all very special people and therefore you make this a very special place. My children have grown into men that I am proud of. Now that they are grown adults, I am very happy that we are able to have our grandchildren attend Peace Lutheran School. God is good!

This school has been the perfect landing spot for my anxious, curious, bright child who had a hard time fitting in when in a traditional public school setting. The majority of instruction happens in small groups, so it naturally accommodates his attention difficulties. He’s greeted by name everyday by many staff while walking in, and is genuinely excited to go to school!The inside of the new building is great, as are the small class sizes. While there are updates to the outdoor spaces that could happen (and may happen eventually, it’s only the second year in this space), my kid comes home thrilled with all of the creative games they play outside.Overall, we are so glad we found this school. The balanced calendar works great for us, and him. The principal is out at drop off and pick up, and seems to be really involved. We love the small school feel.
