(4 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - it is a very nice school, however there are some faculty there that will not hesitate to call cps on you over very dumb things. But besides that it is a good school

(1 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - Example of bad review? Both reviews above this. Sentence structure is poor, and the people writing such are more than likely even poorer somehow. Swartz Creek has nothing but an increasingly accelerating African American population and police who have nothing better to do than (...) with kids walking around. Avoid these "good" schools and send your children to Iraq.
