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

There are a few issues with this school. The lunches are nearly indigestible, which happens at all schools. The biggest problem is the students here. A lot of them come from affluent backgrounds (not all), and that seems to get to their head. All in all, this is a great school to send your children. They will learn a ton here.

I guess that some of the goings on are pretty standard for high schools, but I found a lot of it outrageous. While I went to Dexter: 1) One of Cornerstone staff members let a 5 year old kid wander out into the street alone. 2) One of my high school teachers (also my coach at the time) joined other students in cyberbullying a teammate on Facebook. 3) This same coach also authorised us to stay in a motel that had a clear incident of prostitution in the parking lot where the jon tried to run over the woman with his car, which was followed by a drugs' bust. Following this incident the coach thought that the motel was safe enough to stay at again. 4) A male high school teacher bullied a friend of mine until she attempted suicide. 5) The same teacher bullied me, made comments about my appearance and conducted himself unprofessionally in a way that I could only consider sexual harassment, though at the time, I didn't know how to explain it. When I stopped speaking with him, he began openly attacking me in class. He attacked me by name, my religion, and even other students who tried to point out his behaviour wasn't acceptable. I complained but he was not disciplined beyond a light slap on the wrist and received tenure. He was never fired though complaints continued to come in, and moved to the middle school instead. (He has now left the school district, by his own choice.) 6) A Cornerstone teacher told 2 first grade classes that suicide was honourable. 7) My sister had two of her teachers discussing her medical issues in front of the class and with other students saying she was "probably just faking or on drugs," while she was absent. 8) Our bus driver taught the kindergarteners inappropriate words while saying they were acceptable. 9) I watched another student dump lighter fluid across the back seat of the bus and try to light it on fire. 10) Another high schooler tried to give elementary school kids sips of vodka on the bus. Other high schoolers kicked him out the back of the bus before the bus driver noticed. 11) A student stabbed another student through the hand with a pen in class. 12) There were at least a few suicide attempts inside the high school while I went. Since then there have been attempts even in Mill Creek Middle School. There's a noticeable culture around at least half of the teachers and most of the administration that does not take bullying, mental health issues or even crimes seriously. Nothing can illustrate this any better than recent events: one of the counsellors failed to report a rape, (which is a crime since school counsellors are mandatory reporters.) https://articles.mlive.com/news/ann-arbor/index.ssf/2017/12/dexter_schools_accuses_counsel.amp As to the quality of education, it is better than some public schools, but you could and would learn more at other are high schools. The younger grades have a particularly bad foundation for math which results in high schoolers failing chemistry because they were never taught to do math with fractions. The English grammar foundation is so poor most high school students struggle mightily with other languages because the lack the basic foundation in their own. The new curriculum that has been implemented caused several of my favourite teachers to retire and one even retired to pull his kids out of the school. I don't think that this is a place where kids are educated. It's more a waste of time, particularly once kids reach the high school. There are very very poor supports for students with autism and intellectual disabilities. The paraprofessionals are overworked, critically understaffed, poorly trained and even more poorly paid, which contributes to the problem. Even if you have an IEP plan for your child, do not expect the school to respect it. It is awful the way things are run. Early interventions and working with your child consistently can make a massive difference and it's sad to see how badly the school fails in this regard. This being said, there are a few absolutely five star teachers at the schools. I would mention them by name, but I don't know if they are still part of the schools. I graduated and moved on, but I've continued to keep up with the news about the school and it only seems to be getting worse. If you send your kids here, please be very aware and involved with them. Hope for the best, but be realistic. You need to be prepared for the worst.

Care is individualized for each child and each child is given a chance to grow and learn in a respectful environment. The kids spend a good portion of the day outside so if you visit and the space seems small it is because they don't spend all day in the building. If it is over 10 degrees they are outside playing. Kids come home exhausted, happy, satiated, and wonderfully dirty. They are fed organic, healthy snacks, and they actually eat them. I almost choked on my coffee when I read the email that my son had asked for extra kale at snack time. Are you serious? It wasn't in chicken nugget form and he ate it? The administrators are working with kids and teachers all day so sometimes it can take a few calls to get questions answered. Don't get discouraged by this. It is worth the effort to get a hold of them and take a tour. As a foster parent I've experienced a lot of daycares and preschools in the area. There is no place in the county that compares to Green Apple.
