10/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI’m really disappointed with the current state of Pinnacle . While it has the resources of a large school, it’s far too big to provide a quality experience. Students are treated like just another number, and any sense of community is completely lost in the crowd.The biggest red flag is the teacher turnover; staff are quitting left and right, leaving students with a revolving door of long-term subs who aren't familiar with the curriculum. It’s hard for kids to stay engaged or build relationships when the teachers don't even stay for a full semester. I would look elsewhere if you’re looking for stability and a supportive environmentOther Review3w ago - Pinnacle Peak Elementary School

8/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI attended this school from 1st up until half way through my 7th grade year and I have to say it is by far the worst education experience I have ever had. The school fought against my family when trying to get an IEP and only started assisting us when we got a lawyer involved. I had 2 great teachers Mrs. Ogden and Mrs. White but the rest of the teachers were rude, snarky and outright unsporting of kids who had special needs for their education. The special needs teacher was also extremely useless and claimed growth even though I was stuck. The disciplinary actions taken by the teachers and administration was either negligent or extreme with no middle ground... Do not send your kids to this school they will have a terrible time between the teachers and admin.Other Review6mo ago
