Compared to almost any other school, it's amazing, has room to improve, a lack of good teachers, and a money-hungry administration, which results in some issues.

I absolutely love everything about Cranbrook!!!!! The teachers are the kindest and most impressive group of educators I could imagine, and my kids are surrounded by other wonderful kids and families. I simply adore being a member of this community!!!

I dealt with a fair share of blatant racism at Cranbrook, including being called racial slurs amongst other things. I can only speak for myself though. Other black students might've loved their time at the school.

Crankbrook challenges the student to not just learn facts but challenges to understand how and why. Teachers work very hard to help the student learn. My grandson loves not only the school, but the excellent food they are served.
