Grass Lake Elementary School

I have been going to this school for almost 4 years, April 1st would be the anniversary for my fourth year. I have been bullied since I got here, so I would say that the students are not the brightest cookie in the oven. Yet the teachers, well most, are very helpful. My favorite teacher here has to be the current math teacher from 2018-2019 named Mrs. Massa. She is very helpful and is willing to answer all questions; she suggests for people to stay after and/or during lunch if they have any questions or need help. All the other teachers are just the same, yet most students don't use their recourses properly. Long story short, the bullying issue needs to be stopped and the teachers and electives are absolutely great; I am proud to have been called a brave for so long.

My 3 children attend Grass Lake with my oldest graduating this year. We have always loved the small class sizes where I feel my children have had more specialized attention when needed. I feel fortunate to know all the staff which promotes a sense of security in aspects of safety and the education of my children. We live in a very unique district located on the Chain of Lakes which offers more for my children’s lives than other suburbs can do. We are very excited for the new addition to be opening this year!

Our kids have been attending Grass Lake for 4 years. This is by far the WORST school they have attended. The teachers, staff and administrators do not communicate well with the parents or students. The discipline is nonexistent. The bullying issues are out of control and the education our children are receiving is ok at best. More then half of the staff acts as though they do not like their jobs and or kids. We have had many issues with this school. The well behaved kids are put on the back burner due to teachers not being able to control the students. I wish we knew how bad this school was before moving to this area!

This school leaves a lot be desired. We have experienced many other schools with our three older children and this school is by far the worst we have encountered. The communication between teacher and parent is non existent. I received a generic email from a teacher stating that the "whole class is doing very poorly". He have no indication on how he as a teacher was going to improve that. The administration claims that any child can come to them when a bulling incident happens, but then when the student does, they say don't come to them with such small issues. The problem is that it isn't a small issue to the child.
