Desert Foothills Middle School

I love that my daughter’s teacher Mrs. Hill is very communicative with me about her school days and I love the fact that all the teachers and principal are very welcoming, supportive, and interactive of kids. It’s changed from when I went to school and I love it!

Ironwood is a wonderful school. The teachers, principal, and families are warm and welcoming! Students are taught academics in fun and engaging, hands-on lessons. Parents are encouraged to volunteer and participate at their comfort level. The community around the school helps and supports the events held at the school. Student are also taught social/emotional awareness to help them express themselves in safe ways, build and maintain healthy friendships, as well as, form positive outlooks and self talk. Parent/Teacher communication is valued and they often share data to show my students growth. I love that my kids have formed such strong relationships with their teachers. I love this school!

I've had very good experiences here at this school. I've worked for this school for over a year and a half now, and I absolutely love it. The teachers are great and really care about the childrens' education and well-being. The social worker is very kind and helpful. The school provides the appropriate support and accommodations for students with disabilities. The principal is always going out of her way to help the students, staff, and parents. I would definitely recommend this school to others.

I was hesitant about the school simply because I wanted my child to go elsewhere. We decided to give it a go and are very happy we did. It’s a small school which makes for small classroom sizes which I love. Compared to bigger schools a struggling student can get lost in the crowds of children but here they can get one on one attention they deserve. Very grateful for the communication, support, and kindness every teacher gives.

My family came here from public school and I am so thankful God opened the door for us to be at NCS. The love and care for each of my kids is evident. Of course it is not a perfect school but we aren't in heaven yet. NCS is very family oriented and desires to be open and welcoming to the families. We have loved the academic structure but also appreciate all the fun events and clubs. I can't thank God enough for making a way for us to be here and can defiantly feel the Holy Spirit present on campus.
