I would agree with everything others have responded with and shared. The climate of the school has progressively worsened over the past 4 years or so. I think most parents remain because the school looks 'pretty'. There are more students than the school is equipped or competent to handle. The attitu
Posted by a parent on 8/10/2019Two stars based on what I have seen in the last two years. This is as an educator and parent. When tutoring looks like regular class time when the students are being let out for the day, that is a red flag. This great schools report is more than accurate for this school. Too many children have issue
Posted by a parent on 11/6/2018My child move from Kindergarten to the 5th grade and I can tell you that this is by far the worse experience I have had other than 4th grade, I can say 5th is the horrible. The school has a poor reputation, lack of sports, science, history, math and reading programs. If you care about your child's e
Posted by a parent on 4/26/2018One star. The science curriculum at this school is poor. I love most of the teachers at University Prep Academy Ellen Thompson Campus except for two unprofessional 5th grade teachers. During a meeting with my son's teacher in the principal's office, I pointed out to the principal that my son's teach
Posted by a parent on 7/31/2017If you care about the education of your child/children, DO NOT SEND THEM TO THIS SCHOOL.

5/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageStrongly dislike. This place does not care for students comfort, or thought. Especially the principal, she’s very inconsiderate and rude. My daughter strongly hates this school. Don’t understand how this is the number one school. My daughter feels uncomfortable and confused on learning tactics and teachers thoughtless on. Unfair as well, my daughter is a great student but gets punished. 1/10.. Do not send unless you want your children to be confused and uncomfortable..Parent Review1y ago - Spain Elementary-Middle School

6/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageFrederick Douglass is an amazing school. All of the teachers have advanced degrees three are doctors and one of them also instructs at the University of MIchigan Ann Arbor Campus. The school offers many opportunities for the students i.e. internships, college courses, sports (State Champions), and broadening excursions. Frederick Douglass is a best kept secret.ParentParent Review4y ago - Edmonson Montessori
