This school district is awesome. They have gotten a bad rap due to faulty reporting and test scores. I can't tell you how great the teachers have been to my kids. With all that is going on in Genesee County I would recommend this school district over any other for technology advancements and all around quality teachers.

This district does not care for student. They see us as dollar signs opposed to actual people. They also discourage people from attending school board meetings because they are afraid of what the community thinks.
