Posted by a parent on 4/9/2026I am a former student love the opportunities that Central Academy provided to me and all of my extended family. Central is more than a school; it is a community center that supports so many students and families. Teachers are dedicated to their students and it is a family like environment.

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageJo Ann (the vice principal) is a bully and demonstrates passive aggressiveness towards other adults, which creates a very toxic environment. The principal doesn't even respond to emails or phone calls. The teachers are nice and seem to genuinely care about the kids. If the administration fails, how can the school function? This place is setting itself up for a potential lawsuit in the near future with this "I don't give a care" mentality.Other Review2y ago - Hebrew Day School Of Ann Arbor

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMy kids loved this school and so did us. The teachers are amazing and always there to listen and help as needed. When my child needed extra help I was contacted immediately and received the support I needed in order to help them succeed in the school. Even though it is not a special education school, students who need extra support or have disabilities receive the needed accommodations and the school works with the parents to make the best plan for each child.Parent Review1y ago - St. Francis of Assisi School
