Have had a TERRIBLE experience at this school. Bullying behavior is truly out of control. Student culture is really sad.

I am the parent of an excellent student at CCHS. I recently reviewed the data on where this year’s graduating seniors will be attending college, and I noticed that only a couple of students are going to Top schools. For a high school of this size (more than 3700 students) , that is not acceptable. The data from previous years shows the same pattern.This has also been my experience with my own child. It seems that the school is not interested in investing in the success of its highest-performing students, nor is it truly partnering with their parents. Instead, the school appears to follow more of a “no student left behind” philosophy.My suggestion to the principal would be to personally ensure that the top students are paired with the strongest teachers. Teachers should also be evaluated, in part, based on their success in preparing students for admission to top colleges.My child is enrolled in all AP and honors classes, yet he still has some mediocre teachers—some who do not teach effectively and others who are frequently absent during the school year. This is not the level of instruction that high-achieving students deserve.The principal should also meet with the parents of these top students and involve us more in supporting their academic success.

Dry Creek Elementary has been an incredible experience for my two children, and I am immensely grateful for the school's support. Having relocated from another state four years ago, my eldest son struggled with learning and focus. Unfortunately, his previous school lacked the resources to test him. However, after Dry Creek received his information, they reached out to us over the summer to discuss their plan and testing. During his first year, we met with five specialists who evaluated him, qualified him for an IEP, and identified him as twice exceptional. Dry Creek worked tirelessly with my son, who has since graduated from his IEP and is now excelling in 7th grade. I credit his success to the care and resourcefulness of Dry Creek Elementary, which has helped shape him into the remarkable young man he is today. Additionally, the school community is amazing, and we have formed strong bonds with other families through our children's friendships. Overall, Dry Creek Elementary is a fantastic school, and I highly recommend it.
