Parent: After a few months of online schooling and many tears, we were desperate to find an in-person alternative to the anxiety inducing situation we were in. Our 9 year old son and almost 5 year old daughter have been attending the lower school since January and we are extremely pleased and feel so fortunate to have landed there. Our sensitive son’s anxiety level has been lowered significantly, and he really responds to the learning style there. He is thrilled to be learning cursive and German and knitting, and also seems to really appreciate the extra outdoor time and learning about nature and Native American stories in addition to his times tables and long division. Our nearly 5 year old daughter’s imagination is put to great use every day and she has also become quite the little finger knitter! The environment is nurturing and thoughtful. They have done an incredible job keeping everyone safe during Covid. And their communication is the tops.... Read 15 reviews

Chelsea School District, MI•
9-12
Senior: There are so many opportunities for both students and staff to be involved with one another. There is a wide variety of courses and extra-curriculars available so students are able to explore multiple career options while also acquiring the necessary credits to graduate. However, there is very little diversity in the school regarding the students. It would be helpful to have more cultural backgrounds represented, but unfortunately, Chelsea is a very white-dominated community, making it harder to have more diversity in the school....

Southfield, MI•
Parent: As a parent of both a middle school and a high school student I am extremely pleased with both of their school experiences over the years, inclusive of their academics. Southfield Christian represents an amazing community, academic rigor with an emphasis on college readiness, and most importantly a strong foundation in Christ that is used to shape our youth and that guides leadership direction. Both of my students love the school and their community of friends which includes strong relationships with teachers and administrators. Having experienced the elementary school, middle and high schools, I would strongly recommend Southfield Christian School for children of all ages!... Read 100 reviews

Parent: After three years, we continue to say that we love this school! The teachers make an effort to really understand our kids and their learning styles and approaches. The teachers are also able to work with our kids in recognizing their interests but encouraging them to try new things. Yes, the small class size allows this type of interaction and, yes, we do have to pay tuition. But if your child is neurodiverse and differently wired, they will be at home here. Families are from many different socioeconomics and educational backgrounds. It is not elitist. The culture is one of respect and kindness.... Read 15 reviews

Junior: This school is very new and the facilities are nice and clean. The people are very nice and the culture is inclusive, with lots of opportunities to find things you like to do. Sports are okay; they haven't been established that long so the going is slow. However many sports can be made into clubs, which are strongly encouraged. The teachers are very good. In the last year the school went fully online and the experience was not great, but since going back to in-person the people are a lot nicer and create an extremely friendly environment....

Parent: I am so grateful for this school. When my oldest son was finishing up kindergarten in another state, his teacher's one recommendation was to put him in a smaller school. Well, we found the right school in Ann Arbor Christian school. He made instant friends. He receives a lot of encouragement from teachers and peers. I am sometimes incredulous at the welcoming and positive environment, especially in places I don't expect it such as the middle school students being so genuinely friendly with our children. We were looking for a school that would give our children continuity between home and school and we found it. The Bible teaching we engage in at home is supported at school. The academics are rigorous without being too stressful.... Read 1 review

Alum: As a former student of Rise Hybrid Private Academy, I highly recommend to anyone debating to enroll! Not only did this Academy enable me to excel both in and out of the classroom, but the students/teacher became family. Students receive an unparalleled education while still having fun! I will forever cherish my memories of AP Biology dissection labs, the field trip to Washington DC, even one on one math (which wasn’t my strong suit🤣yet it is still a major memory, proving the impact of this school and teacher!), Secret Santa during the holidays, and many more. Through this Academy, I established a foundation in advanced education as well as life skills such as communication, time management/efficiency, and work ethic. I would not be the person I am today had I not enrolled in Rise Hybrid Private Academy!... Read 10 reviews
