The thing I most appreciate about Rice Canyon is that there are always a variety of activities and 'Extras' going on. From assemblies to Jog-a-Thons to school plays and drill team...There is always something fun to do. However, in the classroom I am a little disapointed. I don't feel that my children's

I suppose I was looking for teachers who regularly went above & beyond the call of duty but I don't really see that here. :-( And finally, if you pick up and/or drop off your kids personally, leave plenty of time to get into and out of the school.
