Senior: Saginaw Arts and Sciences Academy is an amazing school academically, it has prepared me for college immensely well and I am convinced the coursework is beneficial to students in their desired future career. It has also become incredibly inclusive, ahead of most schools in the area and I am very proud of what our generation is achieving. There are aspects in the extracurricular and sports programs that I would love to see become more focused on. We also have incredible visual and preforming arts programs that make the school unique.... Read 125 reviews

Parent: We enrolled our son in Fork Union Military Academy after seeing so many YouTube videos that touted the benefits of the one-subject program and the school. The promise of focus, structure, and accomplishment came through. He passed all his classes in this, his first year, a sophomore at FUMA. We took advantage of their academic success program. There he found continuous support and cheers! They found novel approaches to reach him, took the time to learn about him, and flexed their approaches. I have been concerned in the past about the ability of teachers who are not Black to 'see my son' as an individual. At FUMA, they know him, challenge him to be his best, hold him accountable, and motivate him. I am proud of what he has done this year. As a testament to the place, he is looking forward to going back in the Fall - he's proud that he's earned a promotion in rank and knows he can do even better academically. Amazing....

Senior: I've spent 4 years at MLS and unlike other high schools, my school is a family where the students and faculty have a special relationship with one another. My teachers make sure that they are involved in each of our lives and they help prepare us for life beyond high school. MLS is a preparatory school that encourages students to continue their education at Martin Luther College in New Ulm, MN. The focus is on preparing students for the ministry, whether that is a pastor or a teacher. However, if students decide not to continue on in the ministry, I wish there was more guidance from teachers on different colleges and majors.... Read 102 reviews

Senior: Attending Nouvel has been the greatest 4 years of my life. The small class sizes, the competitiveness in athletics, the ‘family’ mentality, the bond, and so much more! They make sure they give their students the best possible opportunities to succeed and go on to have a bright future. The teachers and faculty care and no one is left alone. If people are not doing well in class, they offer ‘PASS’ which is basically a one-on-one until that student is passing. I haven’t ever wanted to leave Nouvel and I cannot see a reason why you would not try your hardest to send your kid to NCC! Nouvel produces the best and brightest and will continue to lead in excellence.... Read 98 reviews

Parent: It was a really great experience, and definitely a good way to finish gen. ed.s early! There's a good balance of high school and college courses, and the program allows for an easy transition from public school to college with a good support group for continuing to finish your degree. I think the only downside is that because it is on a college campus, it's harder to join school clubs, as you can't join the college's clubs. Clubs can still exist, but it's entirely up to the students to keep them going. Sports are also harder, and you have to join them through the school you used to enroll into the program....

Alum: It was a great school that prepares the student for the feature. I know personally because I attended Handley. The teachers are nice and they do their job. This school also exposes the children to the arts and languages which is a very great thing. They also prepare the students for sciences and have them doing hands- on activities in legitimate laboratories with excellent equipment. This school is also great because it is a school for the gifted so it is not just an ordinary school. It has students from different backgrounds, so children will be comfortable and be exposed to different children. ... Read 1 review

Senior: Frankenmuth High School has offered me plenty of opportunities throughout my four years with them. Being inclined to the Arts, I have appreciated Frankenmuth High School's well-funded fine arts program that is very connected with Frankenmuth's community, allowing students various public art opportunities. During my time at Frankenmuth High School thus far, I have been able to participate in the construction of a public iron statue, the carving of a public snow statue, and the ability to design a logo for the school's athletic department. All of these experiences were both beyond memorable and very helpful to me in my arts skills and opportunities for my future. Frankenmuth High School also has great sports and after-school clubs that offer team-building and leadership skills, as well as a friendly and helpful staff that will do the most to get you through school as easily as possible....

Senior: Despite the school's choice of an online learning platform, Heritage is a pretty okay school! I may be biased because I spent a lot of my time there and in its dual enrollment program, and my friends are all there, but believe me when I say I've never felt more at home than at this school. The staff is nice and understanding, they assist students in making plans for the future, and provide opportunities to be active in the community. Furthermore, there are many activities and events the school plans that the students are allowed to participate in throughout the school year to earn prizes and find the time to relax after working for so long. Lastly, they offer counseling and tutoring to those who may need a little extra help.... Read 278 reviews

Parent: We switched to Sheridan during the pandemic joining a small community that focused on the safety of our children while limiting the disruption to their education. The administration did a stellar job. What truly stands out is how well rounded a Sheridan education is. In addition to the more traditional academics, its arts and music instruction as well as its focus on diverse communities through the student clubs is truly exceptional. We chose a K-8 school because of the added focus on the middle school years which can be difficult transition years. As the school skews young the older kids don’t grow up too fast. This is a gentle school. Middle school students mentor the lower school students. My son loves his mentor and he looks forward to becoming a mentor to a lower school student himself. Finally, Sheridan is a school that builds confidence. In 7th grade, students lead their own high school selection under the guidance of their teachers. This is incredibly empowering!...
