It is a very good school, my child has been enrolled at George Crockett Academy since the kindergarten. But there is only one problem with this school, they have parents buy school supplies such as paper, pencils and crayons and etc...when the school district is suppose to furnish them. According to the Michigan Department of Education no parent should be buyng these items. That is what part of the state funding is for. So why do I have to purchase these items if the State gives money for them?
