This school is amazing!! Mr. Ellis the principal is the glue of this school. He makes the kids so happy and he’s always involved in the school activities. This school has zero tolerance for bullying. The teachers at Beacon Tree are more than average teachers they are above average; so amazing and all really care about our children. If they notice your child need a little more support academically they will offer extra help for your child. If anything happens in class or outside of class the teachers communicate with parents right away. The front office staff are amazing also. Front office staff are always sweet, caring and smiling. Whenever I go In there they know every child’s name and treat them with the most respect and always kind. Kids love going to the office lol. Front office will always communicates with parents right away if there’s an accident or some issue. The best school in Utica hands down.

My wife and I are so glad that we made the decision to bring our girls to this school! Excellent teachers and staff. We love the curriculum. Our youngest gets extra help that is beyond private schooling. I am proud that we made the decision to do school of choice and give our girls the best!!!!

My daughter is going into 2nd grade and loves this school, I feel like she has learned so much already. All the teachers I have met are all excellent! I am sad to see Mrs. Clor leave but am sure she chose some one just as good as her to replace her. I would recommend this school to anyone! This is a school of choice and am glad I chose for my daughter to attend Beacon Tree!

My son has developmental and emotional delays and this school has been outstanding in helping him succeed. He has made remarkable progress an I can't thank the staff enough for helping him reach his goals. The progress he has made is a testament to the dedication of the staff and principle. Not only has my son had the extra help needed he has made progress which is most important when considering the programs available, they work! My son has had behavioral problems as well. He was never labeled "a bad seed" even when his behavior problems were at their worst. They worked closely with me and we worked through most his problems by putting all the neccessary tools in place for success. They never gave up on my son. The principle is hands on and the kids love her (even my son who has seen her office a few times for not so good behavior) The teachers are deeply devoted and seem to trully care about the children's education and well being. The parent volunteer's do a lot of the students and plan several fun activities throughout the year. I would recommend this school to anyone who ask.

This school is the best.....our children have attended this school now for over four years. I picked this school through "school of choice" and will continue attending until all four of my children have completed here. It is a fun school with teachers who know how to build confidence and self-esteem with children as they learn. My kids come home happy and full of knowledge from their day at Beacon Tree! The Principal is an amazing leader! She seems to know all the children by name and addresses them with love and respect! I just can't say enough about this "WOW" school. Any parent would be pleased and proud to have a child that attends this school. I wish more schools could follow there lead. I know Beacon Tree will produce many future leaders for our beautiful world. Thank you to everyone at BEACON TREE ELEMENTARY, shelby michigan!!

My children have gone to Beacon Tree for 4 years, a 5th grader and a 1st grader and I couln't ask for a better education, when my daughter started she have some dificulties with the language and she went to the ESL program with the best comprehensive and effective teacher. The teachers at Beacon Tree are well prepared, and they loved their profession and work with passion & love with the kids. The administration office is outstanding, friendly, and go above and beyond with the kids, phone, parents requests, and any little or small issues. The security is like or better than any private school. I feel very happy and tranquil when my kids are at school. Thank you to the staff and kids that make my children happy to go to school every single day. Noemi Jimenez
