Antelope Canyon Elementary

Do anything you can to avoid this school. This isn't our boundary school, my child tested into the Advanced Learning Program, and this school sponsored that program. They have learned less in this program than they did in their accelerated kindergarten program. At parent teacher conference, we were told our child was having a hard time sounding out words, but then the teacher realized they didn't have the right kids’ info in front and then didn't know what to tell us. We got state scores back and they came back far above the "advanced" section in all areas of reading, so we still aren't sure what the message was here. This isn't an isolated incident, there have been multiple kids that have left this class because the environment is so bad and multiple parents that have spoken to the principal about various issues that haven’t changed.The communication at this school is horrible, it's hard to know if they genuinely care about the safety of children or not. When there was a stabbing at a nearby school in 2023, they didn't notify parents about the school lockdown until the end of the day when we were picking up our kids; meanwhile, the other schools in the area had already let their parents know via email and phone calls as soon as they put their schools on lockdown earlier that day. In 2024 there was a gas leak at the beginning of the day, and they kept all the kids outside for an hour while they investigated and didn't tell any parents, we found out via Ring doorbell messages other parents sent to each other that our kids were standing outside while it was raining and snowing.I know there's a lot of pressure on educators and the school system is broken, but I am in a position where I send my child to a place, I don't think has their best interests in mind (learning or safety) each day. If your child is in ALPs consider a different school, and if this is your boundary school, see what you can do to get your child somewhere that they'll actually be taken care of.

It's a god school but the lunch makes it horrible. I am complaining about the lunch, it's horrible. Every time I come home from school II feel like I'm going to throw up. If the lunch doesn't get fixed me and my parents will keep complaining.

The environment at this school is safe and nurturing. The staff really do care about the students and the community and go to great lengths to continue to further thier own education and abilities to reach all gaps in student acheivement.

Oakcrest is the best Elementary school for my child. I can’t turn back time but my biggest regret is not taking her here sooner but I had no choice at the time. I hold the staff here in high regard.

Golden Fields Elementary has been a wonderful experience for our family. The teachers and administrators are truly caring, professional, and supportive. The school itself is very clean, modern, and well-maintained, which gives a great learning environment for the kids. We also feel confident knowing the campus is safe and secure. Overall, we’re very happy to be part of this school community!
