    I love my school. Everyone is so fun and inviting and I learn a lot every day. Thank you Niles…read morestaff and students:)

    Only reason I won't be completely honest and specific with with review is because I am almost…read morecertain the Niles faculty will cause even more issues for me as some kind of "revenge". Without putting my personal experience in too much, let me say things all students will experience. The school has a rodent problem. Multiple people, including staff, have found dead mice or rats in lockers. The school has also been redone in 2018, and faculty complains that it was done badly. Even basic features are messed up. The tile is off centered. The outlets by sinks are not water proofed, so they get ruined easily. The school set up is just strange. In some hallways, there is only a bathroom for one sex. The school has an attendance policy that can easily ruin your child's grade and definitely cause unneeded issues. Your child is allowed 5 absences a quarter. After that, every absence takes 5% off your grade. 5% is big, and niles wonders why 25% of their freshman were failing (according to the principal). Even if a parent calls in and/or the child has a doctors note, it doesn't matter. You can try to "appeal" the absence, but that basically never works. You can, however, serve detention to make it up. But detention makeup ends before the quarter/school year ends. The school is also not high in national or state rankings. The efficiency rate in English is only 60%, and math is only 30%. The high school also pushes New Tech severely. New tech is a form of learning where all work is done as group projects. That literally sounds like every child's nightmare. If you fail one class in new tech, you automatically fail two because the subjects are "bound". They don't educate children on their many other educational programs. They offer Andrews University (math and science, very competitive), SMC and LMC (college level classes at the campus), and early college (take classes at LMC and SMC, graduate a year later than you should with a degree). Multiple students have said the school counselors lie to them about these programs, saying "you're not allowed to do that", even though they have every right to participate. They also tell students they're not allowed to test out of classes, even though Michigan legally allows students to test out of any class. Many parents have expressed concern about this.
