St Mary's alumni are well represented at elite universities, as Olympic athletes, and in top ranked college athletics programs. The class size is fairly modest, allowing for good attention to individual students. Students' achievements are nonetheless strongly based on the effort they put into obtaining their education. This is not a prep school where you get your "ticket punched" merely by showing up.

This is our family's first year at Bloomfield Christian School, and we already feel so blessed to…read morebe part of the BCS community. (To my knowledge - It is currently the only Classical Christian school in Michigan that is accredited through the Association of Classical Christian Schools (ACCS), and you can see why--it is deeply intentional about both faith and academics. From the very beginning, it has felt more like joining a church community than simply enrolling in a school. We fully agree with and support the statement of faith, and we love seeing biblical values lived out even in small ways; like the boys being taught to hold the doors for girls and carry heavier items. The school affirms the sanctity of life, encourages Godly standards for both students and parents, and grounds everything in piety rooted in Christ. The teachers clearly love what they do, and it shows. They are supported not only by leadership but also by parent involvement, which creates a strong sense of partnership. The communication is incredible--daily contact with our child's teacher, weekly updates from leadership, and constant connection with other parents in the class. That's something we deeply appreciate. Another thing that stands out is the way the community handles challenges. Because the school is full of believers, we all share the most important thing in common: Christ. That means when conflict or drama arises--whether among the kids or adults--it's addressed with a spirit of repentance, forgiveness, and restoration. We also love that the school is intentional about keeping education classical and Christ-centered. There's minimal technology in the classrooms; the kids read from real books, and cell phones are checked in at the main office all day. It's refreshing to know they're learning in a focused, time-tested way. Uniforms and dress codes are another thing we appreciate. They take away the stress of deciding what's appropriate and set a standard of dignity and modesty for both boys and girls, especially for formal events. We haven't yet experienced the sports programs, but we're excited to dive in and support BCS in all the ways we can. To say we recommend Bloomfield Christian School would be an understatement. We feel truly honored to be part of this Christ-centered, classical community, and we're so grateful our family is here.

Our family has been part of this school community for several years now, and we could not be more…read morethankful for the gift it has been to our children. The classical Christian education model has given them not only strong academics, but also a foundation of faith, virtue, and critical thinking that is truly shaping who they are becoming. The teachers are exceptional -- deeply knowledgeable, genuinely caring, and fully invested in both the minds and hearts of their students. They partner with parents in a way that makes education feel like a shared calling rather than just a program. We've also been especially impressed with the new gym curriculum. It challenges the students in fresh and exciting ways, helping them build discipline, teamwork, and resilience. Our kids actually look forward to gym class, which speaks volumes! The school has been a place of joy, growth, and community for our whole family. We wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone looking for a school where truth, goodness, and beauty are at the center of learning. I would give BCS 10 stars if I could. Sending my children here is truly one of the best parenting decisions that I have ever made and I'm grateful for this school every single day.

Start with the positive. If you are looking for a caring, communicative passionate teaching staff…read morethat you can trust and can keep your kids safe, this school is definitely for you. I have nothing but good things to say about the teachers. The negative is the district itself and the principal which will be her 3rd year there. She has a lack of respect for parents and once slammed a door in a 2nd grader's face (which I have witnessed). Rumors are paid staff are being warned to not work here and not sure why. She is telling parents it is their problem and if the students don't trust her to go to a different school instead of working on the problem. The superintendent and administration trust her but won't take the time to call these parents with issues with the same principal as this is not how they do things. If you have time during the day, I would still say send your kids there if they go to school and are basically good kids that can handle themselves and stays out of trouble. That way, you don't have to even deal with the principal. if you only talk to the teachers, your experience here will be fantastic. I would also scan the playground as it can be unsafe and strangers passing through during recess and the school day. There are not enough paid volunteers and unpaid on the playground and during indoor recess. We are told we are welcome to come during lunch/recess and please do so. The more adults on the playground, the more safe our children are. I wasn't sure what star to use. The district and principal deserve a one star but the teachers here deserve a ten star if there was one.
