I liked that Standish-Sterling has ways for everyone to get involved. There are many clubs and sports for you to join if you are looking for something extra curricular to do. The staff are helpful when you need it and the administration is very helpful also.

The teachers are decent. They do an overall okay job at teaching. The college readiness needs some improvements for sure. You can never be too ready for college.

I would like to see more funding for academics to see people get more ready for college. After graduating from Standish-Sterling, I wasn't ready for college and I had no clue what I was doing. I think this area could use a lot of work. More guidance is needed for the students that are going to attend a college or university after graduating and being shown what to do.

This school is awful. We are new to this area and I have found if you do not have a long standing last name they alienate your children and are great to others. The staff is almost like high school kids on a power trip. I am switching all of my children to pinconning. They do not support the kids at...
