Eagle Creek Elementary

Moved to the area in September 2024. My son started the school 3 weeks after school started and honestly, they made the transition super easy. He was assigned to an amazing Kinder teacher (Ms. Tiedeman). She really cares for the students and does so many activities with them she is a wonderful teacher. I love how the school has a Halloween trunk or treat (we had so much fun decorating our car and passing out candy). Also, night of the arts which allows all students to show case their artwork from art class and you can purchase it (super cute). I would like to see more after school events for the students maybe like a family funday, movie night or something like that. But I mean over all the school is great and the staff is amazing. Oh, and the pickup and drop off is so organized! I can truly say I am beyond happy so far with the school.

This is a strong school with a clear focus on academics, especially in math. The state-mandated FAST program has been very effective, and many of the families here truly value education, which creates a positive learning environment. I also had consistent communication with my son’s teacher, which I really appreciated.Like any school, the classroom experience depends on the teacher you’re assigned, and there are a few practices I don’t love...such as using laps during recess as a consequence. My biggest concern is with the school administration. They can come across as cold and not always transparent, so I often found myself double-checking information against the OCPS website to be sure it was accurate.Overall, the academics are strong and many teachers are great, but I would love to see more warmth and clearer communication from leadership.

Great experiences my child loves it, he started kindergarten looking for a great year ahead, also the community and teachers are excellent!
