2 years ago we had to move out of the district. They had some pictures of my son that they wanted us to have, so one of the staff members brought it to his new school which was over an hour away. This is something awesome that you don't normally find in large city schools.

I think there may be another Copper Creek and people are getting really mixed up. It is a woman principal, she is always there, the teachers are top notch, I never have heard one screaming either in a hallway or in a room. Also, the front staff is very helpful and there is no sign in the front that says,

My son, who is now at Hillcrest, attended Copper Creek 1st - 6th grade and I loved it! I have now enrolled my 4 year old in the pre-k program, and love it! I have had much happiness and success at Copper Creek with both of my children. I think you get as much out of it as you put into it. The parents

As for the comment on the principal matching her shoes to her outfit, I am confused, as the principal is a male and he is very active and involved on campus...I see him everyday and the kids all love him.

I am really surprised to read the last comments about Copper Creek. My kids have been there for the last 3 years and I have witnessed the high grade of involvement of the principal with the students. I do a lot of volunteer work in my kids' classrooms, at least 3 times per week, and I have NEVER

Due to the lack of involvement on the principals part, this school is definitely taking a turn for the worse. The teachers seem tired, unmotivated and quick to criticize/judge students and parents. I have to agree with the previous post, you can hear teachers yelling at students from just walking down

It is sad to see a top notch school into mediocrity. All of my kids have gone to the school so I have been involved in it for over 12 years. The current principal is not at school very often and rarely engages the students or teachers. Some of the best teachers have left, the ones that remain seem

You would see the principal in every room every day to 'get a feel' for what was going on. No longer. And, beware of the front office staff. One of them has a sign 'Attack Secretary' and based on her behavior with a student while I was in the office, a well earned sign. Read less
