Schools in MIchigan
Submitted by crystalg on April 11, 2008 - 6:33pm.
I was wondering if anyone has any opinions on what school district is best in Niles, Edwardsburg. My son has ADHD and has really struggled this year. It seems like its been a real fight this year to get him help. Any thoughts would bee appreciated.

WEll....
We live in Brandywine District but my daughter is going to Northside for Spec Ed preschool. Brandywine is horrible you have to fight for everything. I'm getting ready to start a lawsuit against them because they won't pick Bekka up on the bus because she's in a wheelchair and the only w/c bus they have is too big to go down our one lane road.
I haven't heard anything bad about Niles school district. My Step Son is 15 and has gone there for about 5 years now and they've worked with him alot regarding academics.
Edwardsburg has nice school if your child is "normal" but I think for special needs they're not the greatest because they try to keep their "Blue Ribbon" school status and I've known some teenagers that they didn't support enough because they weren't good students and 2 of them ended up dropping out. It's like they try to weed out kids that will bring their scores down.
Just my opinion, but keep researcing it. Find out if they have any special programs for ADHD.

We are currently sending him to Brandywine and it has been a huge battle. We actually live in oak manor so he would go to Eastside. I think I'll do some more checking into Niles schools. But I have had the same experience with Brandywine as you. Now both my oldest went to Northside for preschool and it was great. I'd love to find an elementary with their standards and teachers!

Henry (5) is going to New Buffalo school. We really looked around and found their schools (especially elementary) to be outstanding. I don't know if that helps or not... We love his kindergarten and everything we have participated in so far has been outstanding. Take care.
New Buffalo is a little far
New Buffalo is a little far for us but thank you for the input!!
