Detroit International Academy

"This is the worst school I've seen! Mrs. Bolden is a HORRIBLE principal! She doesn't ever be in the building, she constantly allows the same girls to stay in the school when all they do is bully other girls. They claim to have a zero tolerance policy for fighting and bullying, but it's always some incident at the school. I would not recommend this school to anyone"

"I have seen students leave, only to come right back after realizing DIA was better! Students often think the grass is greener elsewhere (especially if a school has high expectations) but in three decades of teaching I have rarely seen students return to a school as they have here, admitting they were wrong. I have seen many students grow personally and academically in this all-girl environment. Few schools have impressed me like this one."

"fifth time calling for my transcript request. called 1 week ago and they said it would take two days. called again today to get my transcript transferred to my university and the person who picked up was so rude. she would not understand how important it was for my transcript to be sent and was telling me to come to the office to have it processed; I LIVE IN ARIZONA! she was rude and had me waiting on the line for half hour before she said "I am busy with something now. i will fax it to you tomorrow morning". I went to DIA and i have never had problems with the officials. But i do not know why they are hiring people who can not help in their students success. Horrible."

"Actually I am a student who attends this school I have been at this school since I was in the seventh grade. It is a good school overall but it do have its flaws because no one and nothing is perfect. I have a 3.9 cumulative G.P.A. Also students do not like this school for one it's for all girls, two it's very challenging, and three its a strict school with rules. No one likes to follow the rules. But at D.I.A. there are teachers who expect the best you can give and nothing less. SO all of these bad remarks about the school is petty and childish"
