  Rating 4.33 out of 5  67 reviews

Alum: Brighton area schools are nice because they are clean, well funded, and safe. However, the downsides of this is that theres some snobs in the school who are very entitled. Not very LGBTQ+ friendly, and it is extremely in-diverse. About 99% of the student population is white. So because of this I believe there is a lot of ethnocentrism, and entitlement, unless the parents parented well. The teaching staff however is very good and really no complaints there. Never had any teacher or staff make me feel uncomfortable or unsafe in anyway. I am an artist and the highschool had an amazing art program. The theater program was great as well, and Brighton area schools do have great athletic teams. I was on the womens lacrosse team and went to D1 state finals three times. So, all in all, of course there's some things that can be worked on, but I would say it is a safe and good place for a child to grow up in.... Read 67 reviews

  Rating 4.24 out of 5  80 reviews

Alum: My teachers at Hartland were incredible, and still some of my favorite people to this day! I stay in contact with most of my teachers from high school, and they even are willing to take time to help me even at the college level. Like every school district, there are its flaws. Administration can be a little misguided and bias, however they have the school's best interest in mind (which is sometimes not the greatest outcome for students).... Read 80 reviews

  Rating 3.66 out of 5  56 reviews

Senior: For the most part, Pinckney schools are good schools. Most teachers are super nice and willing to see you succeed. The kids in the district are, overall, pretty decent. Some of the school activities are fun like pep assemblies and dances. The teachers are pretty chill too and definitely people that you can build relationships with and are people that you can lean on for support. There aren't any teachers that I would say I hate or wouldn't want to have again, but I do have favorites. There are somethings that happen that I wouldn't give the school 5 stars for, but overall I wouldn't change districts.... Read 56 reviews

  Rating 3.88 out of 5  17 reviews

Parent: My children have been attending Fowlerville community schools since kindergarten, while they have not yet reached high school, the elementary and junior high schools have provided them with an excellent academic and social experience. The faculty is fantastic and always available for resources and support. Have had 17 years as an educator myself, I have set the bar high for my kids. Their experience this far at Fowlerville have helped them to maintain a high regard for academics, strong moral character, independent thinking and commitment to community. The small community provides a nurturing environment that is not often found in larger urban communities. A great place!... Read 17 reviews
