Spring Creek Elementary School

My son struggled with many teachers in private daycare. At daycare the response felt more like a threat that he better behave or else. Everyone acknowledged he was performing well-above his grade level but wouldn’t accommodate to keep him challenged to avoid boredom. When he came to DCES his first couple teachers and principal worked with us to create an action plan: we felt optimistic. Then in 2nd grade a crucial coupling of him and Ms. Hope Brown was everything he needed. She was a blessing to us and, under her support, our son earned countless Antler Way awards and joined the Gifted and Talented program. Thank you to everybody at DCES - especially Ms. Brown - for motivating and developing a child who might’ve been wasted elsewhere.

I love James L. Dennis. My kids have excelled and learned so much here. The teachers are truly caring and their love for their students is genuine. Different staff members have recognized my kids at places away from school and have made a point to call them by their name and say hello. Can't be in a better school!

My son attended this school and absolutely loved it. I appreciated the teachers attentiveness and the after-school program accommodated my son's needs and my work schedule.
