I recently moved and we really miss Discovery. The teachers and staff were so wonderful and my child never had any issues with learning or behavior. Since we have moved we are realizing what a perfect school Discovery was and I am considering school of choice to have my kids there for 2019-20 school year.

Discovery is a great school but it was set up to be great. By that I mean it was built in a suburban community. The PEAKS program is housed there to further boost test scores, and the teacher MM picks and chooses which students she feels are "good enough" to be in the PEAKS program. It is basically a form of discrimination how they go about it. If you are a very involved parent your child will definitely get into PEAKS. Then, all the other Kentwood elementaries are suffering because they have basically pulled all of the smart kids into PEAKS at Discovery. It is a shame that the superintendent allows this to happen.
