Our grandchildren attend this school, positive experience, awesome caring staff.

First of all i would like to say its not a bad school but some things need to be fixed. To start the lunch lines are way to long, by the time i get food lunch is almost over. Also in 7-8th there is way to much homework, in 8th my brother spends 3-8 hours on homework. Its the first thing we do when we get home from school and were still doing it at dinner. School time is for learning, WE ARE JUST KIDS WE SPEND MORE TIME DOING HOMEWORK THAN HOW LONG MY FAMILY WORKS!!! Even in 1rst grade my little sisters has weekend homework beacuse she cant finish it all. but my 5th grade sister never has homework the porportions just dont add up.All im saying is school is for learning, at home kids should be able to have a life.

As parents, it's often challenging to find a school that checks-off all our "wants" and "needs" for our children and rate what constitutes as a "good" school as it can be so subjective, so here's my perspective of what Eagle Canyon Elementary embodies...When we first arrived to this school, we found the enrollment process to be smooth. Front desk staff responded quickly and processed the paperwork in a speedy manner. They're not the friendliest or chattiest batch, but in their defense, they deal with A LOT of challenging parents.A recurring scenario you'll find at Eagle is the teachers and support staff screaming at children (e.g., "Don't run! "Stop!" "Listen!" "Sit still," "Focus!"). Their approach to handling behavior is archaic and revolves around practices that don't align with best practices (e.g., behavior charts, benching children, withdrawal of recess, punishment, demerits). The faculty and staff are in dire need of educating themselves in appropriate guidance techniques, professional development on brain research and developmental theory. In that regard, you're child will come home with hoards of worksheets (10-15 a day). This takes no creativity, no careful planning or effort, as worksheets are the lazy teacher's approach to "teaching." It's clear that this school's focus is on the 3's (writing, reading and arithmetic) and the drill and grill curriculum that leads to mindless rote memorization. There's no meaningful learning here, as everything is taught to the test and this pressure to perform will kill your child's motivation to want to learn and come to school. Add the piles of homework assigned each week (10-15 pages) which research suggest over and over again that there is no correlation between homework and academic success, and you've got a group of administrators and educators who are not well versed on educational practices and pedagogy that align with research. The principal, Ms. Bearden, approaches the mighty task of educating children around the carrot and stick approach. EVERYTHING revolves around rewards and punishment. She's an authoritarian whose only goal is to shape our children into complacent little beings. Eagle Canyon kills passion, crushes creative thinkers and children who challenge the status quo. If this is what a "good" school is, then Eagle is for you. But if you want your child to be creative, think critically, be motivated to learn and develop into a decent and empathetic human being...Go elsewhere.

the teachers dont help u learn anything and i been to 2 diffrent high school and this is the worst one i been to , its so outrages

So far this is my first year here, and I love it the kids and teachers here are very respectful. The principal is very responsible and respectful too everyone! I hope to finish this year strong. I really do recommend coming to this school for anyone!
