My daughter is entering 3rd grade and has been there since kindergarten and my son will be starting kindergarten this fall. My daughter has been counting down the days for summer to be over and school to "finally" start up again. I really like that during the school year, the kids are not bogged down with unnecessary piles of meaningless homework. Kids are encouraged to be kids. It's exactly the learning environment every child should have.

SK emphasizes small class sizes and learning through service, with lots of activities out in the community. A substantial fraction of the children receive scholarship support and the student population is very diverse. If you think your child would benefit from the sort of individualized attention offered here, you really should give them a call, regardless of your income. Their URL is missing from the profile.

It's been a while since I've been to the middle school. From what I remember, this was an okay…read moreschool. Didn't meet the same standards as the high school in Saline, but was still a good place for the children. The staff can be iffy, especially the lunch supervisors. I have memories of getting chewed out for walking around at lunch, which in my opinion shouldn't be frowned upon, but rather encouraged, as children get a chance to socialize with each other. The classes seemed alright. There was not as much variety as the high school classes, but you still learned a lot from what you took. Most of the teachers cared about your education. What really grinds my gears about this place nowadays is that they don't shovel their sidewalks. I was on an evening run the other day and got taken down by a patch of ice covered by a layer of snow. I got up, back hurting, frustration rising, and an all around feeling of disappointment in the school's inability to clear their sidewalks for pedestrians. This is a safety hazard. It should be taken seriously. I feel like the perfect word to describe the middle school is meh. 3/5

This school has the cruelest high school students ever, if you don't want your child to be bullied,…read morefalsely accused of, or made rumored of Then I recommend you take them somewhere else than this high school Take my experience for example. On the first week of high school, students were obnoxious, and they sometimes left the classroom, and they talked Cruel things about the teachers Behind their backs, and for the past weeks I was cussed, yelled, given the finger, thrown a lotion bottle at, and falsely accused of smoking weed by other kids. The girl's restroom is in shambles (not sure about the boy's restroom though) When you walk in the girl's restroom sometimes the smell of weed and vape hits your face because some girls do drugs in the restroom's and the Bathroom stalls either have no locks on them or are dislocated and can't shut properly so this leaves a huge risk that someone could come in the stall your using unaware that you're in there. The sinks are Absoulutly dirty because some girls cut and brush their hairs and leave strings of hair and eyebrows inside the sinks and I think they pour milk down the drain too. Fights are really common in this school, and they happen unexpectedly, and it leaves you on edge because you don't know when another fight is going to happen and you have to be prepare for what might happened in the school, this school doesn't give out good punishment to kids who do bad things and after they punish them, they still haven't learned their lesson. False accusations and rumors are the real issue in this school; I have been falsely accused of taking a dump in the school bathroom and it spread like wildfire around the school, firstly I never took a dump in the restroom for the entire school year and second of all that is what restrooms are for. In this school students don't mind other people's personal business, and this school doesn't announce special events happening your only news source is eavesdropping, and gossip and this school doesn't tell you anything. One time there were food trucks in the parking lot, and they didn't send us emails about, they didn't announce it on the speakers, absolutely nothing. And me and my friends were flabbergasted when we saw food trucks in the parking lot, we didn't have any money to purchase things. Students don't respect no one, they always say the N-word, and they all act like toddlers even though were in high school. This high school is the worst place on earth with the worst students who obnoxiously don't care for anyone but themselves and they made my first year of high school HELL do not come to this school it will leave an emotional and physical scar on your child take them to another high school where I'm at right now.

My son is a new student at Emerson this year. After several lackluster years in one of the top…read moreAAPS elementary schools, we knew we had to try something different, before he became completely disengaged from learning and school altogether. We have had an amazing experience at Emerson. My son's teacher is creative and funny -- she keeps the material engaging and challenging while presenting it from many different angles to meet different learning styles. The class sizes are small - limited to 20 kids. Students learn a foreign language, have lots of time in computer lab working with an IT instructor, a great hands-on science program where the kids are doing experiments in the lab, a phenomenal music program, and many other kinds of enrichment that you just don't get in public schools. You pay for it, of course, but so far, we have not regretted a single penny. The real payback for us is that our son is happy to go to school again for the first time in two years. That has probably less to do with all the bells and whistles and more to do with making my son and every kid feel that they are understood, recognized, and appreciated as a unique individual, which Emerson seems especially good at.
