Copper Creek Elementary School

I’d give it a 7. This school always asks for money like every other week it’s we need money for this or buy that or donate now! We were asked to send cash for a PT teaching aid the first month of school which I’ve never seen done even at a lower income school. Everyday the parking lot for pick up and drop off is RIDICULOUS! I see students and parents almost get hit in the front of the school while the cross walk guard is there because there is no organization in that parking lot for thru traffic and drop off traffic. Some days the gate is open right on time and other days they are a few minutes off. It’s inconsistent especially in the morning when they want to mark students tardy.

All the staff are kind and my kids have enjoyed their teachers. I love the garden they have in the Kindergarten playground. So far, when my oldest has been in 1st and 2nd grade, they had a snack time. Even in Kindergarten they have a snack time. I believe it’s beneficial, so I’m happy they do this.

My Kindergartener has thoroughly enjoyed attending Copper Creek. The office staff and teachers we have met have been wonderful. He is learning a lot and is challenged by his school work. Mrs. Shipman is amazing. He enjoys the garden they care for in his playground and they recently had a class pet of baby chicks to learn about and care for as well. We also utilize the before and after care "Bobcat Den" and have been very pleased.

My son is in 4th Grade at Copper Creek and this is his 3rd year. We have been very pleased with the faculty. They have a wonderful gifted reading and math program and plenty of after school functions to keep the students involved and active. We are very pleased with everything.
