Spring 2014 Excellent Schools Detroit Recommended Schools KINDERGARTEN-8 TH GRADE
Every year, we gather a group of parents, experts, and teachers to grade Detroit’s schools. We use more than test scores— we also look at how much students learn in a year and what the school atmosphere is like.
Know, then enroll Get in touch with our recommended schools, learn more about them, and find a good fit for your child. It’s best to enroll in a new school as soon as possible before it fills up.
Excellent Schools Detroit recommends these schools because of their:
• Welcoming Environment • Caring Teachers and Staff • Strong Academics • Involved Families • Community Partnerships • Afterschool and Extracurricular Activities
