PCE is lucky to be hidden in a special neighborhood that supports its activities and students. Most grades only have 2 sections and people know each other and take care of our whole school. Kids get special experiences like dad-child campout, grade level musicals and choir.
Posted by a parent on 7/16/2018We moved here for the school, and couldn't be happier. It is what everyone says it is -- a superior education made possible by high parent involvement, excellent teachers, a ridiculously awesome principal who knows every kid's name, a beautiful campus, and a community that supports the school in so
Posted by a parent on 7/13/2013We have been so happy with our elementary school. The teachers and staff are nurturing and supportive, the academics are outstanding, and the facilities and technology are great. But the best part of the school is the fabulous community of active and supportive parents. Overall, this hidden gem of a
Posted by a parent on 1/21/2012We have been extremely impressed in our 5 years of experience at this school. Our second child is starting Kindergarten August 2011 and we have no reservations. We are very thankful to have this very stable, active public school in our neighborhood.
Posted by a parent on 6/30/2011Prairie Creek is locally known as a fantastic school and our initial experience with this school has been very positive. The classroom size contributes to a small-town, personal feel. The parents, teachers, and school staff all take great pride in making this a top tier school.

9/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageWe 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!Parent Review2y ago - Northrich Elementary School

4/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageOverall, 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.Parent Review1y ago - Richardson Terrace Elementary School

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThe 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.Parent Review5y ago - Peace Academy

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageIf it were possible to leave this school zero stars I would! The Frisco location in particular HAS NO PRINCIPAL OR VICE-PRINCIPAL IN THE BUILDING EVERYDAY! (I've heard that the principal is running the school from Turkey, how that is possible is beyond me)There is a front office person who is TERRIBLE, she is mean and rude and yells at parents and students. I've even witnessed at events her yelling at teachers. This is an unacceptable way to run a school.On top of that I do not believe that they have a true curriculum for the students, and what they do have that I have seen is very outdated.My student is always telling me the copier is broken.We won't be back! My advice RUN!Parent Review1y ago
