BASIS CEDAR PARK PRI

We love Faubion. Our kid is thriving. We love the community of teachers, staff and parents. Our child struggles with anxiety and has two teachers and the counselor who regularly check in on them.

Wonderful staff! They welcome parents to attend their kids during lunch time any day. They also have a very unique policy that if a child is in preK then the parent is allowed to walk that child right to the classroom the whole year every single day. No other school allows it. This was a major criteria for us. They dont stress much about late time also which is nice. Kids are very happy their and love their teachers.

First, I want to thank Erica Coon and the wonderful staff at Naumann for helping to facilitate the transfer of my daughter in an expedient manner. They were so incredibly welcoming and kind and the atmosphere is very positive!

My son has been at Knowles since first grade. Previously, we were at a charter school, but I felt like he wasn't getting his needs met with such large classes. We decided to tour our zoned school(Knowles), and were pleasantly surprised. Initially, I had reservations due to the school's scores, but we absolutely love our school. My son is in dual language, and it has been incredible. We've been blessed to have wonderful teachers every single year. In addition, he's had teachers help him one-on-one in order to improve his Spanish and get on grade level. The communication from the campus is great, although I'm still getting used to Parent Square. The class sizes are really good, and I feel like his needs are met. I also love that he has two teachers for different subjects, as it's teaching him to work with different personalities. He's also had wonderful friends and no behavioral problems in the classes. Overall, we're super pleased. All of his specials teachers are great as well, and especially his Quest teacher, Ms. Minardi. We appreciate our principal and the office staff. They're easy to work with and communicative in the past when any issues have arisen.

Excellent teachers, strong leadership, and a positive learning environment. We couldn’t be happier with Deer Creek.

Our experience with Summit Christian Academy was deeply disappointing and, unfortunately, harmful to our child’s well-being. We enrolled our children with the hope of providing them a strong academic foundation grounded in Christian values such as compassion, grace, and support. Sadly, those values were not reflected in the school’s actions, but specifically as it related to the current Headmaster in charge. Prior to his arrival, we did not have this same experience, but unfortunately his actions were the main reason we decided to remove our child from an environment led by this individual. Over the most recent year at the school, our child faced ongoing challenges that were met not with understanding or support, but with dismissal, targeting and, at times, a lack of empathy from staff and leadership. Rather than working with us as partners to support our child’s development, the administration often took a rigid and judgmental approach that left our child feeling isolated, unheard, and emotionally distressed. We expected a nurturing environment where Christian principles were more than just words on paper, but instead lived out through kindness, patience, and humility. Instead, we witnessed a culture where certain students were favored, and others—especially my son who struggled—was marginalized, labeled and ultimately attacked. This was not the Christ-like guidance we were promised.Our child’s confidence and mental health were negatively impacted during their time at Summit Christian Academy. We eventually made the decision to withdraw him for his own emotional and spiritual well-being. While no school is perfect, it’s crucial that institutions claiming to provide Christian education actually reflect those teachings in their daily practices and interactions.We hope this review encourages thoughtful reflection and change within the school, so that no other child has to go through a similar experience.
