We've had the privilege of experiencing the Peak Expeditionary School community for nearly four years now. As a parent who is highly involved, I regularly observe firsthand how deeply the staff care for our kids and families and engage in meaningful ways unique to each student. I continue to be amaz

Auto drop off is cleared from drop-off to door, however any children and/or parents who may walk up the south pathway to door are forced
Posted by a parent on 12/4/2025As an educator, I care a lot about where my kids go to school. During the pandemic, we had to choose a new school without even being able to go inside—but Peak’s core values and CREW culture really stood out.Now, a few years in, I can honestly say it’s been incredible.My two kids are very different
Posted by a parent on 5/21/2025Peak has exceeded our expectations by leaps and bounds. We wanted a safe place where our kids could get out of the classroom and learn by doing and that’s what you’ll get. My kid is excited to go to school and learn everyday. The school and PTA put so much love and effort into creating a welcoming,
Posted by a parent on 2/12/2025We choiced into Peak after a very bad year at our “higher ranked” neighborhood school and we couldn’t be happier. The staff, the social emotional curriculum, the importance of community and being a good person is beyond what I could have expected. I’m blown away at the difference in schools. My kids

6/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMy children attended Mountain Phoenix from ECE all the way through 8th grade, and it was truly a gift to our family. The teachers nurtured not just their academics, but their curiosity and sense of self. Today, both of my kids are in high school and still carry a genuine love of learning that was sparked at MPCS. The community and the Waldorf-inspired education gave them a foundation that continues to serve them.Parent Review7mo ago - Sts Peter & Paul

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageWonderful school and community. My kids have been at SPPS for over a year now and the community and experience just gets better and better. The teachers are experienced and caring, the staff/admin truly cares about your children. My children are learning and have a stronger mastery of their subjects than friends with kids at other schools. I have been so happy to have people in our corner at SPPS who are keeping our best interests in mind. Also, there are many opportunities to build a strong network of friends as a parent. There are many volunteer opportunities and other parents really go the extra mile to get to know one another and invite kids to parties and events. This community seems to be in a renaissance and truly it feels more and more fun to be a part of it. I will say that the more you put in the more you will get out. I have taken the time to volunteer and talk with people and it has paid many dividends for our family. Couldn’t recommend this school more!Parent Review7mo ago - Stevens Elementary School
