This school brings you into its family. They help the kids feel safe and welcome while they are learning. If we have a problem the staff works quickly to help fix the problem. We love our marshall academy family!

I am absolutely blown away by the support the school provides my children and family. The staff is always so friendly, real, and caring. They communicate so well and are consistently going above and beyond for their students.

The school has allowed my children to feel safe and work toward their individual goals. They allowed my child to move up in math to make sure she was adequately challenged and my children have loved their teachers. As a parent I love the uniforms and the simplicity of finding them as well as what they need to wear each day. I also appreciate the diversity and inclusion that the school strives for.

Very unfortunate! Teachers are good but hands tied do to administration not having control of a few students who abuse the system and disrupt their whole class rooms.

My children have been enrolled at Marshall Academy for over two years. The high level of academic standards, back to basics philosophy, and safe learning environment are just a few reasons why we love this school. The music director is incredibly gifted and the students just love being in his class! Beyond academics, this school teaches positive character traits which children can carry with them throughout life.

I have worked at Marshall Academy over the last three years, and have had an excellent experience. The teamwork among staff and attitudes of students are head a shoulders above the other places that I have worked. I feel that the uniforms give us a unity and create an environment of expectation and feeling of safety. Marshall Academy follows its mission statement, and upholds the values of their handbook. Two of our seniors this year are Michigan Merit Scholar finalists. Ferris State University who holds our charter has openly called us their top school. I am proud to be a Griffon!

This school exposes children to cold on a bench, refusing to let them come inside and learn if they fall behind in their studies. Anyone who has been hunting will tell you you need two extra layers of clothing to sit perfectly still outside on a cold day. Rules, rules rules and damage to self esteem and faulty nutrition info to the young girls who go here. A breeding ground for eating disorders.

My school strives to be the best that we can be. Our staff and teachers are passionate about what they do and it is evident in our students' success. Our test scores are continuously improving as our students strive to meet their goals. Marshall Academy is a family friendly environment that encourages parent participation.

Marshall Academy is providing our children the exact kind of education that we have always wanted for them. The classical curriculum begins to prepare children from day one for a life of purpose, virtue and academic excellence. We have no doubt that they will be prepared for college and life beyond. The high academic and moral standards match up perfectly with our own philosophy. At Marshall Academy we are treated by the teachers and the headmaster as true partners in our children's education. It's like receiving a private school education for free. No school is perfect, but this one has been close to it for us!

Marshall Academy offers a college prep curriculum that compares to many private prep schools. The atmosphere is conducive to learning and is very caring....a family. The teachers are amazing. They make learning challenging and fun. They are very dedicated and give much of their time and wisdom. The school has a fabulous music program which begins early and continues through the high school. They also have an active theater program. They offer many sports options and any child that is dedicated to doing their best can play...no matter their skill level. It is amazing to see some of the kids that have never played a sport blossom into athletes, because someone gives them a chance. I am so thankful my children are attending Marshall Academy and know that as they graduate in the next few years, they are prepared for anything they will face academically in college.
