BASIS Richardson Primary

School staff are very helpful to the student and the parent.

We have had at least one child at Canyon Creek Elementary for over a decade. It is a very small school (2 classed per grade) with a stellar administration. I have had teachers and administrators go above and beyond on more occasions than I can count. The school does a good job fundraising through the pta so the kids get lots of extra sports equipment, technology, authors visits, and even clubs This neighborhood has a great sense of community and it is really easy to be known and get plugged in!

Great school! The staff is caring, organized, and truly attentive to the students. My child feels happy and supported here.

Overall, this school has not been great for us. The teaching quality is all over the place. Some great teachers, but some really bad teachers, too, that should not be anywhere near kids. Punitive, shaming approach in some classrooms, and unfortunately, very little real accountability from administration.

I have been happy with the school environment, academics and staff here.

The personalized attention given to students is great! The teachers really care about my children. The class sizes are small enough for everyone to know each other. And being smaller means there are lots of ways for students to get involved and "test their wings" -- clubs, athletics, student leadership, community service, etc.
