Queen Creek Elementary School

Jack Barnes is a terrible school. The principal Dawn Kennaugh is absolutely useless. My children have had multiple problems being harassed and bullied and she has done absolutely nothing to take care of it. She will keep the bad kids at her school and let the good kids leave the school instead of taking action. She is a terrible principal, has terrible leadership and we have now unenrolled our children. I would avoid this school at all costs!!!

I think this school was great, I was there for a few years. I'm now in 8th grade. There's just one thing I disliked. As soon as I got to the school my teacher was constantly on me. It was to the point I was crying and scared coming to her class everyday. She'd yell at me in front of everyone, it could be for something small too. I was in fourth grade. She once told my mom that I'm not the best at communicating, which I hated because as a student who should've felt safe didn't even want to talk with her. I came in the middle of the year, coming from a school where I was still learning 3rd grade standards and were bullied. Her putting pressure on me wasn't making it any better especially when I was a child. Overall, I made some friends and learned a lot. Maybe I'd recommend, not the rude teachers and bullying but the learning and friends you make while you are there.

My children have been going to Auxier since Kindergarten. They have been through 2 principals and loved both. The teachers are fantastic! We love how they incorporate kids of all different backgrounds and learning in all rooms! Being around others who aren’t “just like you” is lovely and teaches kids to be kind to all!
