GBDismissive and Unaccountable! My son has attended Easr Arbor for 3 yrs now. He's in eighth grade. Whenever there has been an issue regarding dicipline I think the teachers and deans are pretty fair. There have been some growing pains but over all I have been supportive of them and making sure my son is accountable whenever he needed to be. However, when a staff members behavior is questionable or inappropriate Mrs Newby and even the previous principal, Shaun Leonard were dismissive and neglectful. Mr Harding the gym teacher.does not mirror the moral codes that National Heritage Academies tries to instill in their students and in my opinion Mrs Newby is looking the other way. My son has complained about that teacher bullying him and singling him out in front of other students about a medical condition he has and all I got from her is "he said he didn't do that." Seriously?!? Thats it?!? Not 'Ms. Williams we take your childs concerns very seriously and we will keep an eye on the situation or someting!!!' I am furious! My son felt so defeated afer speaking with her today. He said "mom, he can get away with it because he's an adult." So here is my son's voice in this public forum speaking to you. If there is an issue with a teacher and your child, it will swept under the rug. The kids are expected to be accountable for their actions while the teacher's can wreak havoc on your child emotionally. Two more months and we won't look back.

GBEast Arbor is a great school!! I am a mother of two students attending East Arbor and my kids are being challenged academically and socially, to be the best they can be. The staff are always pleasant, easy to talk to as well as very accessible. The new principal is engaging, always visible and all the kids know exactly who she is. This school is a family environment and I encourage any parent who's looking for a well-rounded school for their child, to come and check out East Arbor Academy!!
