My daughter came home from school devastated about her photo ID informing me that she was bullied over her school photo by other children. She was telling me that they teased her for smiling with her missing teeth. So i asked her if they had any teeth missing and she said no. As i brought this to the front desks attention they told me basically it was not their issue to deal with amd redirected to me to the teacher WHOM IVE NEVER MET, and said handled it in the app. This frustrated me and made me feel like they were just not handling it professionally with explaining that the teacher will contact the parents and then maybe a parent teacher conference would he conducted JUST something settling. They assumed i wanted a physical reprimanded? Excuse me. This is a school.. Why would i expect them to whoop someone or discipline them physically? Just frustrating to hear them say that. So i asked them are they not taking bullying seriously in this state because we're new here and i dont yet know how they conduct things here and they said theyd just send a social worker to the class to talk to the kids and let them know everyone grows at different rates, dont bully anyone. However, we requested a new ID they made us pay for it because i refused to give the one she was BULLIED OVER BACK! hahah, so i paid. but i feel like i shouldnt have. anyways, so far.. not the best

I am a teacher at North Pointe and am finishing up my 9th year here. I am excited to see the…read morewonderful changes that are on the horizon at our school as we get back to the original mission at North Pointe that includes commitment to building strong academic, arts, and athletic programs, while providing activities that appeal to everyone. North Pointe's faculty is committed to providing instruction that meets the needs of all students. The new administrative team has brought positive changes that were felt immediately across campus , as teachers, students, and families alike felt respected and empowered to get back to what we are good at, educating children. I'm excited to see the "New North Pointe" emerge from the challenges that we've faced. I'm looking forward to an exciting 2019-2020 school year. With the new administrative team, the enthusiastic, dedicated teachers, and fabulous students, 2019-2020 is sure to be the best school year yet!

Tonight we attended the North Pointe Prep's musical theater production of 7 Brides for 7 Brothers…read more It was wonderfully cast and enthusiastically performed. Student actors were talented, student lighting, sound and technical crews were skilled, and the student created sets were beautiful! You could tell that the director taught the students about their craft, and had them fully invested. For parents seeking a school with a strong Theater program for their students, North Pointe is a great option! Well done, Falcon Players!

I do not recommend this school. It is very sad to witness…read morehow much this school has declined. The middle school experience has been especially disappointing. The teachers often come across as rude and seem more focused on enforcing dress code policies than providing quality education and meaningful lessons. The school also does not reflect the Christian values and kindness it claims to promote. Everything seems centered around money, and some wealthy families appear to receive special recognition not because of their children's achievements, but because of their financial donations to the school. Overall, this has been a very discouraging experience for our family.

The classes assign an excessive amount of unnecessary homework without providing any real…read moredifference in instruction compared to standard honors classes at most high schools. The only noticeable distinctions are the heavier workload, limited opportunities for social interaction during the day, and additional fees--for example, charging $75 just to allow casual dress, despite already paying a substantial tuition. Even chapel, which should be a central part of the school's identity, only takes place once every other week. Families like mine are investing in this school expecting consistent spiritual growth, not minimal engagement. There needs to be a stronger commitment to both academic balance and faith-based education.

Positive reviews are from years ago before Ms. Li and her husband John bought the school. If you notice all parents sharing having a similar experiences. And please read Ms. Li's responses, pointing the finger back at the parents. The gaslighting and lack of accountability by Ms. Li and her husband are not acceptable. There's a reason they always have openings. We had ongoing issues, and every time my wife or I tried to bring something up, it felt like we were met with defensiveness instead of a real conversation. We often left those discussions feeling dismissed and blamed rather than heard. There was no genuine engagement with parents. We were asked what we could contribute to the "community," but we never experienced any real sense of one. Communication felt controlled and one-sided. After we set boundaries around comments we felt were inappropriate, our child was removed from the program without notice. As far as we know, our child had done nothing wrong. It was abrupt, upsetting, and incredibly disruptive for our family. This was not the supportive, respectful Montessori environment we were expecting.
